A daring Burglary was reported 5th April 1817.
Cash and Notes to the value of £53 and a Pack containing Prints, Muslins, &c, of about £50 value had been stolen between the hours of eleven o'clock on Saturday night and six o'clock on Sunday morning, 16th March 1817. The Churchwardens and Overseers of Heacham parish offered a Reward of One Hundred Guineas to those who would provide information leading to the conviction of the offenders.
(A second report gave the reward as being a mere One Hundred Pounds)
