The original house became a private dwelling.
( Demolished 1964 )

The present building was built 1934.
The present bar dates from 1934, but has been moved forward & extended.

An article in the Eastern Evening News 30.05.1936 credits the design to Donald C. Chastney, surveyor for Bullard & Sons Ltd and construction to R. G. Carter of Drayton. The sign was painted by Miss K. Skelton of Horsford. 3 single and 3 double bedrooms were provided for letting. ``The house includes a fine bar, a good smoke room, and a large lounge where parties of any number can be accommodated''.

Supper licence granted 09.12.1963

The house was renamed the LOBSTER POT in the early 1990's.

The new owner in 1997 reinstated the original name and by 1999 had added (grass roofed) hotel bedrooms, conservatory (Restaurant) and a terrace.
