THE JEW'S HOUSE, LINCOLN.

sort of fanciful carving, connected together like the links of a chain: the head of the arch is filled with modern brick-work; above is a circular canopy, supporting a chimney; the lower part contains two flues and fireplaces, one on each side the door, which unite above the arch into one. The lower windows are altered from their original form, but two that give light to the chambers have circular tops, ornamented with a kind of cable moulding; that towards the south end, is in its original state, and supported by two short pillars with capitals, like those of the doorway; it is divided into two circular topped lights, and once had a middle mullion; that towards the other end is more modernized; a small window, with a pointed top, filled with a trefoil, is between these, and situated near the south projection of the chimney; a cable moulding runs along the whole front at the bottoms of these windows, and one in a line with the imposts of their arches, of more fanciful workmanship.

In one of the chambers is a recess, with a triangular head, which has given rise to a supposition that it might probably have been a small religious establishment anterior to the Norman conquest, and that this niche was designed for the effigy of its patron saint; but if another conjecture may be allowed, it seems more adapted to the reception of a holy-water basin, being very low, and in width equal, if not greater, than its height, which is certainly an inconsistent form for the reception

of a statue.
