A recent discovery at St. George's Guildhall in King's Lynn, Norfolk, has unveiled a doorway that could have been utilized by the renowned playwright William Shakespeare. The finding was made during ongoing conservation efforts at the historic theater, with the Guildhall's creative director noticing a peculiar shape in the wall, leading to the revelation of an archway.
According to the Borough Council of King's Lynn & West Norfolk, the archway is believed to date back to before 1405, as it is situated beneath the hall's medieval roof structure. Further investigation identified the arch as the entrance to the Guild Robing Room, where high-ranking Guild members would dress before gatherings.
