Dial House and the Old King's Arms, High Street, Foulsham

These grade II listed buildings are situated next door to each other in a prominent position in the centre of Foulsham Conservation Area. In the early 1980s both buildings were empty, and Dial House was derelict. The owner of Dial House failed to respond to a Repairs Notice served by Broadland District Council and so the council compulsorily acquired the house in 1984. The District Council also negotiated the purchase of The Old King's Arms, next door, which included a shared yard.

The Trust bought both properties from the District Council in 1985. The Old King's Arms was converted into a three-bedroom house, and Dial House was divided into two flats.
