On the corner of Portland Street with the High Street and dated 1874. (Lincoln County Record Office : Lincoln City Building Applications No. 529, 05/05/1874). Originally built for Messrs. Usher and Axtell. Three brick buildings with stone dressings, with shaped or Dutch Gables facing the High Street, and a larger and smaller gable facing onto Portland Street. The High Street gables have been offset to emphasis the individuality of the buildings. At the time the style would be described as ‘‘Elizabethan’’, but to-day as Jacobethan. The group has, unfortunately, been spoiled by the unsympathetic shop frontages.
