One of King’s Lynn’s two guildhalls, the Trinity Guildhall was built in the early 1420s.  Its impressive stone floor and exposed beams are lit by the great south window which was rebuilt in 1766.  The window contains numerous panes signed by plumbers and glaziers who worked on the window during the 18th and 19th centuries.

The hall is decorated with imposing portraits including the first portrait of
