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.

Located on the town’s ancient market-place, the building at numbers 13 and 14 is likely to date to the C18. The 1842 Tithe apportionment identified it as a house, shop and yard. The building retains a C19 shopfront, along with some further C20 alterations.
