Nelson Museum
Grade II Listed 26 South Quay. House of 17th century origins home of Sir George England. The façade was rebuilt in mid 18th century. Damaged by bombs in 1942 it was rebuilt 1948. The building had been empty for 10 years when Purcell Miller Tritton and Partners were commissioned to undertake a Feasibility Study in 1998. The total cost of works to return the spaces to their original forms and undertake repairs and refurbishment to the building to make it suitable as a museum was estimated to be £229,193. In March 1999 the Great Yarmouth Preservation Trust purchased 26 South Quay to refurbish it for use under lease to the Norfolk Nelson Museum. The museum was opened in 2002.
