[2864] Kings's Lynn, England
The building on the centre of the photograph is the Custom House.
One of the most recognisable buildings in King's Lynn, the Custom House was built by Henry Bell in 1683 as a merchants' exchange. The building was used as a customs house from the 18th century until 1989. The building originally had an open arcade on the ground floor, supported by Doric columns, which is now filled in. The Custom House was the first Classical building to be built in King's Lynn.
