160 King Street
Great Yarmouth Building Preservation Trust
Heritage Development Trust's latest project sees the restoration of historic 17th-century, timber-framed building
Grade II
160 King Street is the only surviving example of a 17th-century jettied, timber-framed building in Great Yarmouth. King Street was one of the principal streets of the medieval town and is connected to the quayside by a series of narrow passageways known as the Rows. This building sits between two of the few remaining Rows, Herring’s Row and Old Hanna’s Row. Both its age and location makes it an important part of Great Yarmouth’s history as a thriving trading and fishing port. After a decade of vacancy and neglect, Great Yarmouth Preservation Trust acquired the building in 2019 following a Repairs Notice and Compulsory Purchase Order by the Borough Council.
