Leigh-Pemberton House, Tudor timber-framed house in Castle Square, Lincoln, England

The Leigh-Pemberton House stands between Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle, featuring exposed wooden beams and traditional Tudor architectural elements throughout its structure.

Built in 1543 for a merchant, the building served as a bank from 1899 to 1979 before Sir Robin Leigh-Pemberton, Chairman of National Westminster Bank, donated it to Lincoln.

The building received Grade II* listing status on October 8, 1953, recognizing its exceptional historical value and architectural importance within Lincoln's heritage collection.

Located at coordinates 53°14′04″N and 0°32′19″W, the house underwent major restoration works in both 1929 and 1970 to maintain its structural integrity.

The structure represents a transition from residential to financial use, having served as both a merchant's home and a banking institution over its 480-year history.
