Offered by Eyres for sale by auction 22nd July 1878,

On Friday 3rd March 1905, it was heard that the house stood on the four
cross roads leading to Lexham, Wellingham, Mileham and Dereham. It had
four public rooms and stable accommodation for three horses. The
landlord was also a jobbing coachman.
It was 160 yards from the
BULL,
332 yards from the
KINGS ARMS
and 596 yards from the
NEW INN.
150 or 200 persons lived within 200 yards. The Bull was a larger house
and used by a different class of customer.
Mr. Southgate said that he had been at the house for twelve months and
apart from being a coachman he could make a living from the house,
selling two barrels of beer and a gallon of spirits every week. The
house was used by the working class.
For Morgans Brewery it was said that there were three times as many
dwelling-houses near the Green Dragon as there were against the other
