Full Description
Previously recorded under NHER 34204.
December 1951. Listed, Grade II.
See (S1).
House, 16th century in origin but much altered. Refronted in brick, restored in 1967. No. 32 has little remaining of age.
Information from revised (S1).
E. Rose (NLA), 16 February 1999.
Nos. 32-36 Bridge Street were scheduled for demolition in the 1960s but were bought and restored by local architect Desmond Waite, a process that altered their appearance as little as possible. Behind their stuccoed fronts they are all mid-16th century, of brick and flint.
Information from (S2).
A. Cattermole (King's Lynn UAD), 21 November 2018.
Website (S3) reports that recorded as The Beehive public house from 1839 until 1912 when it was closed by compensation. However (S4) clearly marks No. 33 (NHER 34204) as a public house, and the frontage makes this a much more convincing former public house.
