The history of Dragon Hall
The story of 1000 years occupation of the riverside site in King Street, beginning with Saxon dwellings, use of the site by Woburn Abbey and John Page’s hall-house in 1330. Robert Toppes’s unique medieval trading-hall complex then took centre-stage followed by five hundred years as wealthy merchants’ houses, then a crowded tenement before its re-discovery and restoration from the 1970s.
It is now Norwich's iconic architectural medieval masterpiece.
