An advertisement in 1742 (Stamford Mercury 25 Feb) referred to the transfer of a licensee to the "White Hind and new Pack-Horse-Inn over-against the Oat-Market in Lincoln".  This suggests that the buildings were next door the each other; but I do not know where the Oat Market was.  Hill's "Georgian Lincoln" is unhelpful.

A later article (1802)  says that Oat market is in High Street Lincoln.

I wonder if it was in the Cornhill. Oats, corn etc were sold there at one time.

Sorry haven't been here.
Pre 1849 the Cornhill was used for open air sales and in 1849 the Cornhill market was built there.
It included a cellar for storage, which I remember it being used as a pub called the Cornhill Vaults in the early 70's.
It is located just off but part of the  high street, so I think it's the correct area.
Just a bit of history for you  :).
