The doorway of this Norman house survives in the former Licoln Arms opposite the St Mary Guildhall. Grade II* listed Romanesque door arch, dating from about 1150, salvaged during demolition in 1783 and resited in 1907. It is situated in a first floor rear room and is cosntructed of limestone rubble. The outer arch has a complex double chevron 
moulding enhanced by an early form of dogtooth moulding.The 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 until its demolition in 1783.
