Gray Street, LINCOLN, LN1 3HL

Popular pub in Rasen Lane

Co-operative Burton Road branch was purchased for about £733 and opened in 1879 though the shop at 95 to 99 Burton Road that still trades today was built in 1901 and opened on Wednesday August 7th at 7:30 pm as shop, dwelling house and stables. The Co-op reported that on opening “stocks will, in future, be held at this Branch sufficient to suit all the requirements of members and boots will be repaired by a competent workman on the premises,…” Gray Street carriage entrance is now bricked in. In 1996 the Co-op reported that in the July the store “was re-launched following the completion of a sizeable extension which permitted not only a widening of the grocery range, but the re-incorporation of a Butchery and Delicatessen section.” This seems to be when the front was converted to its current appearance but with a doorway in the northern bay. The shop was extended into number 99 to the north in early 2001, presumably when the doorway in 97 was removed.

Built by The Lincoln Equitable Cooperative Industrial Society Limited in 1901 - still a Co-op over 100 years later

Cooperative Society premises built in 1901, the second such establishment to open in Lincoln. Its construction included shops, a dwelling house and a stable. The carriage entrance on Gray Street - now boasting a blue-painted door - was evidently bricked up at some point. The entrance to the current "Co-Op Store" is visible on the left.
