The Clipper Schooner is a public house at 19 Friars Lane, Great Yarmouth, in England. It was designed by A. W. Ecclestone in 1938 for Lacons brewers,[1] for whom Ecclestone was the chief surveyor.[2] It has a decorative tiled panel showing a sailing ship that the Tile Gazetteer describe as typical of Ecclestone's practice in his modern pub designs.[3]

The current building replaced an earlier Lacons pub that dated from the mid-nineteenth century.
