On Thursday 28th October 1824, Four Tenements were to be sold by Auction. Part of the building described as formerly a public house, called the Queen's Head. The occupants were, John Brown, William Panks, James Hooks and John Wakefield.

On Wednesday 14th October 1874, Elizabeth Grass, domestic servant of Lynn, sought to recover 17s in wages from George Fisher.
On 3rd August 1874, Miss Grass had entered Mr. Fisher's service as housekeeper, at £10 a year. On 20th August, Miss Grass had asked to go to Lynn and Fisher had said that if she did so, she should stay away forever.
In a state of inebriation, she, `betook herself to the road and exposed herself'
Another woman named Rosanna Smith, who also worked at the house, corroborated the events.
His Honour gave judgement for Miss Grass, jocularly remarking that he supposed Grimston was a very dull place. Miss Grass added something not over complimentary to that parish.
