From the book “The Perlustrations of Great Yarmouth, with Gorleston and Southtown – Volume 1” by Charles John Palmer, 1873.
At the south-west corner, now divided into two occupations. No. 7 and 8, there is a large
house, formerly occupied by Mr. Dakin, brazier, further south is a row unnumbered and impassable for carts, leading from King Street to Theatre Plain. At the north-west corner is a tavern called the Rose; and still farther south, at the north-west comer of the opening leading
to Regent road, there was an old liquor shop which, in the latter part of the last century, was in the occupation of Mr. Hallmarke, who might be seen standing at his door attired in a long white apron, as was the habit with wine and liquor merchants in those days.* He was succeeded
by Mr. Diver ; and the latter by his son, Mr. W. H. Diver, who died in 1871, aged 86, by whom the house next King street was rebuilt.
The Plain upon which the three last-mentioned rows opened extended from what had formerly been the Main Guard to the town gate, leading to St. George's Denes, and was bounded towards the east by the town wall, which had been " rampired " almost to the top.
(** Mr. Hallmarke married Elizabeth, only child of Thomas Hammond. There is
a portrait of him, by F. Vandermyn, in the possession of Francis Worship, Esq. )

There is a Dutch painter, Herman Vander Myn, (or Herman Van Der Myn) who came over from Holland and was certainly active as a portrait painter in East Anglia, but he died in 1741.
Some clarity on this may come this extract from Page 208, “Historical and Topographic Notices of Great Yarmouth” by John Henry Druery, published 1826.
The works of Herman Vander Myn are but little known: his best pictures are scarce, and the real merit of the master is even now but imperfectly understood. His pieces have frequently been confounded with those of the Vandermines, the elder of whom only was a good portrait painter, and whose clever productions in that branch of the art, in all probability, gave rise to the confusion of his pieces with the portraits of Herman. The styles of the two painters are decidedly different, and they executed at different periods; for Herman Vander Myn died in 1741, but old Vandermine painted nearly to the commencement of the present century.

Frans van der Mijn (1719, Dusseldorp – 1783, London), was an 18th-century painter from the Northern Netherlands.
According to the RKD he was the son of Herman van der Mijn and was born when his father moved to Düsseldorf to work for Johann Wilhelm, Elector Palatine. He influenced the painter James Latham. He worked in Amsterdam during the years 1742-1748 and worked in the Hague before returning to England where he worked on portraits and sent a painting in to the London Society of Artists each year during 1761-1772.
In 1750 Johan van Gool wrote about him, his father, his brothers Robert, George, Andreas and Gerard, and his sister Cornelia who were all good painters. In 1808 Edward Edwards wrote the following about him: "Frank Vandermine, or Vander Mijne: A native of Holland, who lived many years in England, and practised as a portrait painter, both in London and the country. He was some time at Norwich, where he painted several heads. He had considerable merit as an artist, but was of mean address and vulgar manners : He loved smoking and drinking, nor would forego his pipe, though it was offensive to his employers, so that he never acquired the practice which he might otherwise have obtained. He boasted, that after he had painted a portrait, the likeness remained so strong upon his memory, that if the picture were immediately obliterated, he could repaint the resemblance without the assistance of the sitter. He died in indigent circumstances, at his apartments in Moorfields, some time in 1783.
Beside Frank, there were two other artists of the same name, R. and A. Vandermine, both of whom were related to the former. One of them painted for the shops, and there are many slight pictures of an Old Man, in a loose coat and hair cap, hugging a bag of money, which were painted, by one of these artists. The wife of one of them was also of the profession : She painted fruit and flowers, and they were all exhibitors at the Society's Rooms in the Strand, in the years 1761 and 1762. There is a mezzotinto portrait of Frank, from a picture of his own painting, inscribed, The Smoker. It represents himself in profile, with a pipe in his mouth."
