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 building is depicted on the 1842 Tithe map, as a small square building. It belonged to Richard Walpole and was in use as a house and shop and occupied by ‘divers persons’. It was similarly depicted on the 1885 first edition Ordnance Survey map.
