SK9771 : 41 Sincil Street, Lincoln

taken 12 years ago, near to Lincoln, Lincolnshire, England

41 Sincil Street, Lincoln
41 Sincil Street, Lincoln
Part of a terrace of seven properties, originally “back-to-backs” with rear units part of Henleys Yard. Previously Sincil Street was Elder Lane, it had no houses on it in 1817 but by 1826 there were 63 including 38 to 44. It changed to Sincil Street about 1830 (I can’t find Elder or Sincil in 1828 & 1835 directories). 41 was one of a number of properties owned by a John Hawson in 1851 and rented out. In the 1870s-80s the party walls between the front and rear back-to-backs were knocked through, Nos.41 and 42 being first. Shop-fronts started to feature large plate glass windows after 1850, due to the invention of glass casting (as opposed to glass blowing) but 41’s shop-front is unlikely to be original. The former window and door to the rear has been bricked up. Directories include; 1851-1857 Mary Morgan; 1863 John Parkinson (listed at 43 in 1857); 1872 Not listed; 1885 Samuel Clark, wardrobe dealer; 1889-1919 Samuel Freeman, boot-maker; 1946-1965 Fredrick Etches, boot repairer (freehold Ivy Gwendolyn Culpin 1958). In a 1974 photo and a 1983 Street Paving Layout Plan 41 is marked as “May’s” ladies outfitters. In 1996 and 2011 photos it is “Miss Johnsons”. By 2017 it is Ruby & Betty’s’ lingerie and by June 2018 until at least mid 2019 Pelican Place Community Shop. From the 1990s many if not most of the properties on Sincil Street were purchased by Lincolnshire Co-op. For view in 2023 see SK9771 : 41 Sincil Street, Lincoln.
