Described in `History and Antiquities of Foulsham', published 1842
as located ...`till within the last ten or fifteen years, on the south
side of the market-place, a clay house, roofed with thatch and having a
projecting wooden porch, sure indications of considerable antiquity. This
house, up to the close of the last century, was known by the sign of the
KING'S HEAD, and was probably the most ancient of all the inns in the
place. It was in the pulling down of this structure in order to make way
for the range of new buildings which now occupy the site, that the copper
token of Edward Benn, the mercer, was discovered.' |
