jail was closed in 1878, and the prisoners were transferred to Norwich Prison. The building was then briefly used as a town hall. In 1883, The Tolhouse was given over to the mayor, and since then, the Tolhouse has been used as a museum. The building was bombed in 1941 during The Blitz and was restored between 1960 and 1961. In 1953, the Tolhouse became a Grade I listed building.
