1998-2000.
Towards the end of the 20th-century Nos 137-141 Magdalen Street were vacant and in a state of disrepair. As a result they were purchased by the City Council and transferred to the Norwich Preservation Trust, who then initiated a programme of restoration and renovation. This resulted in the creation of five residential units and two commercial units. The yard to the rear was christened Hartley's Court, after Eric Hartley, a long-serving chairman of the trust.
