Summary

A building that was constructed around 1800 almost entirely from reused medieval and post-medieval stonework. The architectural fragments may have come from St Edmund's chapel (NHER 1291), Hunstanton Hall (NHER 1117) or Old Hunstanton church (NHER 1136). In 1981 the eastern end of the building was a cottage, with the western section derelict.
