IMPORTANT NOTE: Please note, the height restriction at the Glory Hole, Lincoln is 9ft 2ins (2.79 metres). This is a leisure site and is determined by us to be a mooring site for the storage of boats between leisure use, customers may well spend weekends on this site, and occasionally longer periods, but it is not sold as, or intended to be suitable for long term residential use. This site does not have local authority planning consent for residential use, neither does it have the level of facilities and service expected of such a mooring. As such the offer that we have is only intended to meet the needs of a leisure boater. A barrier is installed at the end of the residential mooring which prevents vehicle access past this point. Therefore no vehicle access is available to the Topside Leisure moorings at this site. The carpark is for residential mooring customers only. What3Words: ///ends.bake.every
