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 43 is likely to date from the late-C18 or early-C19. It is depicted on the Tithe Map of 1842 as a small rectangular building with its long axis facing on to Market Place. It was recorded at that time as a house and shop owned and occupied by John Riches. The building is similarly mapped on the 1885 first edition Ordnance Survey map.
