April 2009. Listed, Grade II.
Red brick house, originally officers' accommodation and boathouse for Coastguard Station, built in 1883 with some later alterations. Until 1856 there had been a small number of officers based in King's Lynn fulfilling mainly customs duties. In 1875 plans were drawn up for a new coastguard station, now St Edmund's Terrace (NHER 53118), and this was opened in 1883. This terrace of five cottages provided accommodation for the crew and their families, while 6 St Edmunds Terrace, immediately to the north, was divided between officers' accommodation and a boathouse.
