Census reference "lady"

On the Lezayre 1861 Census is a listing for my ancestor which includes a designation of "lady", ie Mary Ann Mark[sic]Monk, head, widow, 65, lady, Liverpool. Can anyone enlighten me as to the meaning of this term - was it in reference to her social standing or ?

Many thanks for any suggestions.
