Old-established and well-accustomed Public House for Sale by Auction, Wednesday, 24th July 1833. In the occupation of Mr. James Howes, bricklayer, and situated amongst a dense population. Mr. Joseph Marshall applied for transfer of the licence to a new house in Denmark Road, North Heigham (Proposed to be the STEWARD ARMS), Monday 23rd August 1880. Owing to "a considerable amount of property in St. Paul's being in a ruinous condition, the Corporation, under the powers of the Artisans and Labourers' Dwelling Acts of 1875 and 1877, had bought a considerable amount of that property, including the Queen's Head." The Corporation wanted to demolish the Queen's Head at the earliest possible moment. (They would pay £325 for the house, without a licence). It was heard that the new house was part of a development where 241 properties had been built, but eventually there would be up to 1,400 houses on the 25 acre plot. It was also said that if the application was refused, it would be no injury to Messrs. Steward & Patteson, since they could turn the Queen's Head into a general shop. The application was refused.
