Peter Sandlyn is named at the Wheatsheaf in 1623, however the parish is not
confirmed.
Mentioned in the trial of Royalist rioters in 1648, when the Committee House was `blown
up'. The Wheatsheaf was said to be Between the Committee House and St. Peters Churchyard.
Offered To Let immediately, 10th March 1742. Enquire of Mr, James Dover at
the house, or Mr. Ambrose Gedge in St Michael at Coslany.
One of 40 houses named as being engaged for the Reception of Freeholders for
Sir John Woodhouse and Sir Edward Astley's Friends on the Day of Election,
Wednesday 14th April 1784.
Address as 14 & 16 Bethel street in 1890.
The creditors of Thomas Saddler, publican, were requested to send their account to
Messrs Day, solicitors, 27th November 1823.
The Creditors were again requested to present their claims within 14 days of
28th February 1824 and all Debtors reminded that legal proceedings would
commence after that date to recover said Debts.
(In 1824 he was described as "Late of Bethel Street, Publican.")According to the Norfolk Chronicle of 27th
August 1892 the Chief Constable objected to the renewal of licence since licensee Alfred
Watkins had left the premises for several weeks without having left any contact address,
which would have been required should any offence have been committed during his absence.
The objection was dropped following a statement that Watkins was a `First class character'
who had left the army in 1889. The reason for his absence was a domestic argument between
him and his wife.
Licence surrendered 05.04.1928.
(On which date the removal from the KITCHENER ARMS,
Mancroft also declared final and both licenses transferred to the ROMANY
RYE).
Demolished 1936 to allow construction of the Fire Station.

On Tuesday 27th August 1872, the landlord, Charles Hart, applied for permission to open from
five o'clock in the morning to midnight on Wednesdays and
Saturdays. The house was used by butchers,
market gardeners, fowl dealers and others who
called early in the morning, sometimes before five o'clock and
could not get away until the market closed at midnight.
Stabling was provided for 30 to 40 horses.
A deputation (against the proposal?) by a
representative of the Good Templars, was not heard.
The application was granted.
