Lincoln Arms Public House
(Formerly Listed as:
HIGH STREET
(West side)
The Lincoln Arms)
GV II*
Romanesque door arch, c1150, salvaged during demolition, 1783,
and resited 1907. Situated in a first floor rear room.
Limestone rubble. Outer arch has a complex double chevron
moulding enhanced by an early form of dogtooth moulding. Inner
arch has keeled roll moulding flanked by quirks and hollows.
The arch was removed from St Andrew's Hall, a Norman house
which stood on this site till its demolition in 1783. The
special interest of the arch derives from its place in a C12
domestic building. Most surviving examples of domestic
architecture of this period are to be found in Lincolnshire.
