What is recorded here

This green commemorative plaque records: Pilot Office Built 1864 with view of the Estuary Cut to the north, replacing site at St Ann's Fort in the old river course. Linked with the former Public Baths (built 1856) to create the Conservancy Board (port authority) offices 1897. Recorded plaque organisation: Rotary Club of Kings Lynn Trinity.

The Pilot Office in King's Lynn, built in 1864, served as a crucial navigational aid for ships entering the estuary, replacing an earlier site at St Ann's Fort. Its later integration with the Public Baths into the Conservancy Board offices in 1897 underscores its importance in managing the port's operations and maritime safety.
