In 1892 the Temperance Movement, in the form of the Kings Lynn Vigilance Committee reported that there was
one licensed house for every 100 inhabitants of Kings Lynn, be they man, woman or child.
Furthermore, they claimed that one house in every 22 was licensed.


However by using their own figures this can be disputed.
It was reported that there were 4161 inhabited houses in Kings Lynn at the time and 180 were licensed houses.
This only equates to one house in 23 being licensed - so things were not quite as good as was stated!

The number of houses recorded in the Licence Registers were :-
