A late 14thC building.

Generally known as the BELL

Lot No. III in sale of Estate of the late Henry Hagon, Wednesday 4th July 1781. Then in occupation of John Jordan at an annual rent of £6 10s.

On Friday 6th December 1839 a complete Brewing Plant at Blakeney was to be sold. Included were leases of three public houses, nineteen years of which remained unexpired at Michaelmas. One of then houses was the Bell.

Reopened as a freehouse and rated as `Deservedly popular' in a 1976 guide book.

A Jaguar car engine was installed in one of the fireplaces by licensee Charles Clarke. The engine was sometimes demonstrated to be in full working order.

Beers with Jaguar related names were brewed for the house by Scott's of Lowestoft. (Brewery closed 1999)

Charles Clarke was reported missing, presumed dead following a boating accident off Blakeney 12.05.1998.
