This section is for shops and buildings previously published as being located in New Norfolk, that are not supported by my research. I will state my reasons and if you think I am wrong, please let me know.

  • Scarr's Happy Home Store

This is a substantial store and buildings this size would normally be built on land owned by the storekeeper. There are no entries in the Land Titles system under the name Scarr for New Norfolk.
