Notes:	Downham Market Gazette 26 February 1881, page 6 NORTH LOPHAM. FIRES. - Several fires have occurred in this little village of late. Only a fortnight ago one occurred upon the premises of a respected inhabitant, when the efforts of the volunteers of the fire engines to extinguish the flames were suddenly thwarted by some cowardly rascal cutting the hose. No clue, whatever, to either the incendiary, or the dastard, has as yet been obtained, although every exertion has been made. On Sunday, about 10.30 p.m. a fire broke out on the premises of Mr. Sam Beales, of the King’s Head, North Lopham, a large straw stack being on fire. A messenger was at once despatched to Kenninghall for the fire engine, which was quickly on the spot, but although every exertion was made, it was not until twelve o’clock that the flames were extinguished. As the horses were being harnessed a bright glare was perceived in another direction, which proved to be a fire on the premises of Mr. Charles Brown, of the Lodge Farm, Lopham. The fire brigade at once proceeded there, and found a large barley stack, the produce of fourteen acres, on fire, but although the men worked with the pluck of real Englishmen the fire could not be extinguished until all was consumed. The police, under the superintendence of Sergeant Tuddenham, were promptly on the spot, but up to the present, no clue has been obtained. Mr. Brown is, we are informed, fully insured.
