From SW. C16 timber-framed cross-wing jettied to street, the surviving part of a larger building which extended to the west, with C17 brick east range at right angles; west front cased in gault brick in C19. Listing: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1331305 ; RCHM: www.british-history.ac.uk/rchme/cambs/vol2/pp47-65 (item 16). The Grade II-star listing reflects the surviving internal features, illustrated at www.british-history.ac.uk/rchme/cambs/vol2/plate-85 (upper picture) and www.british-history.ac.uk/rchme/cambs/vol2/plate-86 (lower picture).

From SW. Dated 1887.

From SW. Converted from, probably, three early C19 cottages; the upper floor appears to be built from courses of clunch blocks alternating with courses of gault brick.

Essentially late Georgian in style, but perhaps mid-C19. The extension on the left is late-C20 and I imagine that the shutters are not original. Not listed.

C16 inn, altered in C19 and substantially restored and extended c1963 following a fire. The upward step in the jetty indicates a carriage way through to the rear, blocked in the C19 when the ground-floor bay windows were also added. The brick gable end is part of the C20 reconstruction.

Appears to show the premises at 2 High Street, so presumably before 1926. Possibly my grandfather's sister-in-law, my great aunt Charlotte (Lottie) Duckering, standing at the pump. Scanned from an unused postcard. See set page for the history of the business.

Appears to show the premises at 2 High Street, so presumably before 1926. My grandfather in overalls with an unidentified assistant. The motorcycle (which has been identified by georgedulcot as a Norton - see below) was registered in Kesteven, the south-west part of Lincolnshire ( www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/registrations/ct.htm ). Scanned from a print. See set page for the history of the business.

Display showing what appears to be an early 1930s Citroën (as it has right-hand drive, it will have been assembled at Slough, but it looks very similar to the left-hand drive 1932 model shown here ). Scanned from a mounted print found in a file of photographs of Young's Garage, Lincoln (who were Citroën agents by 1939). The connection between the photograph and the garage is unknown, although it could be a display in the showroom at 69 High Street, where the garage was located from 1926 to 1939. The building is now occupied by a furniture retailer but it looks as if there was a narrow showroom end on to the street flanked by an arched vehicle entrance (cf. maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=69+High+Street,+Lincoln,+Lincoln... and also a period view at www.flickr.com/photos/jondave/5715085023/in/set-721576134... ; according to homepage.ntlworld.com/stuart.cox/thenandnow/places/highst... the building was originally an arched entrance to Boultham Hall; www.freewebs.com/nicknac3000/aroundlincoln1.htm says that the private bridge that carried the drive from here over the river was removed in 1924). There appear to be parts of a petrol pump on the far left, outside the showroom, which strengthens the possibility of this being 69 High Street.

Seen from the corner of Manor Walk. The pink rendered building is nos. 6 and 8, a C15 hall house with jettied cross wing, perhaps C17. List description: britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-51423-6-and-8-fulbourn . The shop window once belonged to a car showroom, hence the sliding panes. The buildings to right and left are late 20th-century, the left-hand neo-vernacular ones replacing a filling station and car workshop.
