Formerly known as the West Side Entrance, this Grade II-listed late C11-13th archway is attached to the west gable of "Castle Villa" (No.14, Drury Lane) that was built in c1870. The medieval fragments are said to have come from the Priory of St Catherine. The Gilbertine Priory of St. Catherine, outside Lincoln, was founded by Robert de Chesney, Bishop of Lincoln, probably soon after the confirmation of the order of Sempringham by Eugenius III in 1148. The outline of Lincoln Castle can be seen to the rear.
