The CROWN HOTEL - FAKENHAM
1916

This house was built following a fire in 1738 which destroyed many buildings around the Market Place.
Originally called the GEORGE

Known as the CROWN from at least 1795 when mentioned in the diary of Mary Hardy.

Meeting place of the Courts Leet and Baron of the Manor of Fakenham Lancaster.

In 1830 the coach the HERO called at the CROWN & the RED LION every alternate morning, except Sundays, at 6:00am on route to London.

Note : George Harvey is given as Licensee from 1908, but appears in the census returns 1881 & 1891, presumably then acting as a manager for Licensee William Harvey.

The auction of a newly erected Post Windmill at Great Snoring,
was held here Thursday 22nd September 1808.
Unsold, the property was again offered for auction at the
Unicorn, Gt Snoring in 1809.
