Opened in 1867 as a gentleman's club, it became the Albion Hotel in the 1870s, the Barbican Hotel in the 1980s and is now closed. It is currently owned by The Lincolnshire Co-operative Society who have ambitious re-development plans in the area, so this grand, but un-listed building has an uncertain future.
