Norwich Mercury
28/2/1795
:
Walsingham King's Head. Robert
Miles, House-Builder and Surveyor, Cabinet-Maker, Appraiser and
Auctioneer . . . intends conducting the above branches upon very reasonable
terms . . . Buildings of any dimensions contracted for...
Address as High Street 1830 & 1845
by 1871 it was Station Road.
It seems possible that a new house was built in Station Road (c1860) and
was perhaps known briefly as the DUKES HEAD
before returning to the KINGS HEAD.
To add to the plot :-
The RAILWAY TAVERN is listed from c1851 and is known to have been supplied by Elijah Eyres
and later Morgans.
However in a report dated August 1871 a licensee named HILL is given as the publican at
the Railway Tavern. Attention (Non-detailed) was required to his licence. Was this George
Hill who had left, or was about to leave, to end up at the Kings Head? |
No application for licence renewal c1960
Closed and sold by auction.
