Possibly the same as the KING OF DENMARK, where Samuel Gouldsmith, purveyor of a Liquid to cure Wens and Cancers and another Liquid to cure the King's Evil, would attend 8th and 9th June 1778.

Described in an Indenture dated 1st August 1799 between David Jones of Great Yarmouth (late Fakenham) and Thomas Adkin Jones of Little Walsingham, both described as Gentlemen.
The property had been assigned, 25th May 1761 by John Jones to his son, David Jones.
According to a Lease, Release or Settlement dated 2nd November 1766, the Messuage or Tenement, then owned by John Jones and used as a Public House and then or late called or known by the name or sign of the Kings Head, with Edifices, Buildings, Stables, Yards, Gardens and Appurtenances was then in occupation of Berry Boulter, his assigns or undertenants.
By August 1799 the premises known as the Kings Head were in the use and occupation of John Redwin the younger, his assigns or undertenants.

Believed to have been located at what is today Hall Staithe.

Not found in the licence registers 1789 to 1799 so possibly closed in 1760's?

Another house, the DUKES HEAD was also included in the transactions.

Thanks to Mike Welland for finding this house - March 2019
