1861 - Queen Inn/Hotel - High St, Lincoln

Hi Geoff

You beat me to it

Yes it certainly would appear to have been the entrance from the street to the rear yard where the stables would have been.

I have just checked back on my family census details for 1841. My Great Great Grandfather then was shown as a ‘Male Servant’ and living at home that night in Beaumont Fee, but his son, Thomas Hicks, was working that same night as a ‘Male Servant’ at an establishment in the High Street Lincoln, no number shown. Tracing back the Enumerator’s route it most certainly appears to be the Queen Hotel and the Publican is listed as none other than a William Edwards but age given as 50, I presume the father of the William shown in 1851-71 and Grandfather of Henry  as mentioned by Sally.

That was at St Mary le Wigford church, Lincoln, only about 50 yards south of the Queen's.
