Same as SHAKESPEARE'S HEAD given 1819 ?
Reported to the magistrates September 1852 as one of five houses in the town
which were continually open to an unreasonably late hour.
Converted
into a toy shop by 1869.
Note : In the
1863 Cobb directory the
ROSE
& THISTLE is given in King Street
with Thomas Bullimore as licensee. However White places Mr. Bullimore here
at the SHAKESPEARE in the same
year. It appears that Mr. Bullimore moved from the Shakespeare to the Rose &
Thistle, Gaol Street in 1863 and the King Street address is in error.

Yarmouth In Old Photographs' published 1994.
