Built by 1837 with the intent of serving those employed at a new harbour to be constructed
for shipping supplying the city. However the railways were developing at that time and got
the trade. The harbour was never built.
Beerhouse to at least 1862.
Closed January 1997 for major refurbishment.
New owner Alan Cockrill reported to be planning £170,000 refurbishment
of the house and a further £200,000 on a new 12 room accommodation
lodge.
Reopened October 1997.
Signage stating ` Freehouse & Lodge.'
plus
`12 Hotel rooms with mini bars to be complete by Spring 1998.'
Planning permission sought May 2002 to redevelop site to provide 15 houses, with
associated access and parking.
Norwich City Planning officer reported to the planning committee meeting of June 2002 that
the house was not classed as historically significant and "it would be difficult for us
to resist redevelopment of the site".
The `recent' granting of 11 liquor licences (At the Riverside development) was said to
have sounded the death knell for the Clarence Harbour.
Closed March 2004.
Demolition commenced 2nd April 2004
Site levelled by 17th April 2004
02.04.2004 - under demolition
