History


North Walsham is a medieval market town that grew wealthy from the trade of wool and cloth. The town was largely rebuilt following a fire in 1600 but remained a significant market centre into the Industrial Revolution.

The Tumbler Wheel originally formed part of a single early C19 house. It first appeared on the 1842 tithe map of North Walsham, as part of a north-south range fronting onto King’s Arms Street

The range continued to be represented as a single property until the 1969 Ordnance Survey, when it was shown as having been split into 30, 32 and 34 King’s Arms Street, and 2 Park Lane.
