Mentioned in the trial of Royalist rioters in 1648, when the Committee House was `blown
up'. The Wheatsheaf was said to be Between the Committee House and St. Peters Churchyard.
Address as 14 & 16 Bethel street in 1890.According to the Norfolk Chronicle of 27th
August 1892 the Chief Constable objected to the renewal of licence since licensee Alfred
Watkins had left the premises for several weeks without having left any contact address,
which would have been required should any offence have been committed during his absence.
The objection was dropped following a statement that Watkins was a `First class character'
who had left the army in 1889. The reason for his absence was a domestic argument between
him and his wife.
Licence surrendered 05.04.1928.
( On which date the removal from the KITCHENER ARMS,
Mancroft also declared final and both licenses transferred to the ROMANY
RYE ).
Demolished 1936 to allow construction of the Fire Station. |
