House

[edit]
The house of Aaron of Lincoln still stands, and is probably the oldest private stone dwelling in England the date of which can be fixed with precision (before 1186). It is on the right-hand side of the Steep Hill of Lincoln, on the way up toward the cathedral, and is figured in Jacobs, l.c., opposite p. 91, and in Tr. Jew. Hist. Soc. Eng., iii., opposite p. 181 (where accurate details are given). Originally the house had no windows on the ground floor—an omission probably intended to increase the facilities for protection or defense.

This was true in 1906, but is it still true today? Does the house still exist? --FeanorStar7 03:23, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, see Norman House. Cool, huh? --Goodoldpolonius2 03:43, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
