My father, Adrian Hoare, who has died aged 90, was a secondary school teacher and local historian whose work focused on Norfolk, in particular the town of Wymondham, and Kett’s Rebellion of 1549.
Most of his career was spent at Wymondham college, a state boarding school, where as housemaster of Cavell Hall he made a lasting impact on generations of pupils. Remembered as fair and supportive by those in his care, he was also an inspirational teacher.
