We present new CCD photometry of the Small Magellanic Cloud star cluster Lindsay 1 in UBVI filters. It is the first photometry in U and I filters. We determine the reddening E(B-V)=0.014. Using a variety of metallicity indicators in the optical and the infrared regions we determine a cluster metallicity [Fe/H](CG97)=-1.05+/-0.14 and [M/H]=-0.83+/-0.14. We find that Lindsay 1 has an age of 9-10 Gyr.
