Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Former King's Head Inn. This solicitor's office was once the King's Head Inn. In 1648 the Assembly room saw the conclusion to the English Civil War in the final surrender of the Royalists (the name of the venue being rather prophetic!). Colchester a parliamentarian Town had been taken over by the Royalists and was besieged by the New Model Army. After the war the parliamentarians demolished large sections of the defensive wall that had existed since Roman Times to ensure the town could not be so easily defended in future. See the plaque on the wall at 1459062
