The Norwich Mercury of 2nd August 1803 reported ` that Lady Hamilton had, at the Crown,
Thursday last, entertained at dinner some of the most considerable families ( of Swaffham
), where herself and most of the ladies of their party took up their abode. Lord and Lady
Nelson were domesticated with Captain Johnson of Swaffham.'
In 1830 the coach from Fakenham, the HERO called here on alternate
days at 8:30am ( Also at the WHITE HART ) on route to London. The return was the following
day at 7:00pm.
The UNION called daily at 10:00am on route from Norwich to Kings Lynn and Stamford. It
returned in the evening at 4:00pm.
The RISING SUN also followed the same route on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at
7:00pm, returning Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 9:00am.
The house possibly became the GRAPES?
