Description
This Grade II listed building on Lincoln's High Street was originally known as Portland Place Methodist Church.  A crest on the facade is somewhat at odds with the listing information because it names the building "Portland Place Memorial" and gives it the date of 1906.



The listing notes say that it is constructed of red brick with ashlar dressings and has a slate roof with "pyramid-roofed ventilators".   It also has a, "square bell tower, 2 stages, topped with an octagonal turret, spherical lead dome and finial."



There is also a, "Battered square lead turret with a louvred opening on each side, topped with a square lead dome."




"Recessed centre has 3 round arched doorways with double keystones and mid C20 doors and glazing. In the spandrels, 2 draped oval cartouches with inscriptions. Above, 3 windows on a sill band, divided by Ionic columns."
