Pages 173-181 | Published online: 19 May 2016

  • This article is based on a paper read to the Society for Medieval Archaeology at the Spring Conference at King's Lynn in April, 1962.
  • For a short historical and descriptive account of King's Lynn see Archaeol. J., LXXXIX (1932), 328 ff. There is an excellent collection of photographs in King's Lynn; Report and Survey of the Buildings of Architectural and Historic Interest, prepared for the Corporation of King's Lynn by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (London. 1948), cited hereafter as King's Lynn.
  • For examples of useful studies of such buildings abroad, see M. Revesz-Alexander, Die allen Lagerhäuser Amsterdams (The Hague, 1928); and K. Bjerknes, Gamle Borgerhus i Bergen (Bergen, 1961), esp. pp. 108 ff. (English summary, pp. 130 ff.), and A. E. Herteig, ‘The excavation of “Bryggen”, the old Hanseatic wharf in Bergen,’ Med. Archaeol., III (1959), 177 ff. on the Hanseatic merchants' quarter of Bryggen in Bergen; cf. also E. Alnae et al., Norwegian Architecture throughout the Ages (Oslo, 1950), pp. 68 ff.
