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.

Number 5 Market Street dates from the C18 and is located within the historic core of North Walsham. It was recorded in the 1842 Tithe Apportionment as being ‘houses, shops and yards’. The building has undergone alterations in the late C20 and early C21 to convert part of the building to a variety of different uses.
