I have spent the past 20 years living in Australia, and I can honestly say there hasn't been a day gone by where I haven't thought of my beloved Norwich. I am so terribly home-sick and can't wait to see my beautiful City again. I'm planning on coming back permanently in the not too distant future, and am so glad to see that it still looks pretty much as I remember it.......apart from some of my favourite shops no longer being there (I could happily spend an hour or more browsing around Hovells). Your video brought it all back to me so clearly and it brings me great comfort knowing that it is still very familiar and beautiful as ever. I am so excited about returning to Norwich, I can't wait to stroll down Elm Hill and visit the Castle museum again and just enjoy being home again. Thankyou😁

When you walked into the church in tombland (the wonky building). The reason the path is lower was due to the plauge, too many bodies and not enough space, so the soil level was raised to accommodate them. The roman Catholic cathedral and plantation gardens are also very much hidden gems in plain sight. The prison also used to be the cavalry barracks, hence the iconic shape. Final fun fact is that the nazis party loved Norwich City Hall and based some of thier own buildings on its style. Just things I learnt doing works for the council and meeting the people who look after the bits and bobs. Lovely video 👌❤️

I think it was Norwich I went to see when I was staying with a friend in Cromer, 21 years ago! I lost contact with the friend & almost forgot the place but I remember the Cathedral & the old stone buildings, at the time I thought they were churches & chapels on every corner! I remember Cromer Pier well with the big hotel facing it & I remember the winding streets in Cromer. They are the only 2 places I've been to in East Anglia. Thanks Tim, I've finally found out which part of the country is East Anglia, I thought it was near Newcastle & Hull! Very interesting blog on Norwich, the old quaint character of the buildings reminds me of Chester.

15:30 - you asked about the little blue door into Ethelbert Gate, it leads up above the actual gateway and is used as a school classroom for the Norwich School (formerly known as King Edward School) which is mainly based in the Cathedral Close to the left of the actual Cathedral as you walk through Erpingham Gate from Tombland (you went through Erpingham Gate on your way to the Cathedral). Quick bit of local knowledge for you, that Gate is named after Sir Thomas Erpingham who was in charge of King Henry V's archers at the Battle of Agincourt, Sir Thomas is also buried within the Cathedral as well as having a Gate named after him). Awesome video and I'm really glad to see someone really enjoys walking around this fine city I live in 🙂

After lockdown, if you visit Norwich again, the Tourist information point is in the Forum building and has some interesting guided walks and history leaflets. Definitely worth checking out. Also the Norwich Ghost Tour is good too. I read that the City Hall was spared from the bombing in WW2 because Hitler had his eye on it for his future speeches on the balcony. It was pictured in his Baedeker guide book to UK. Also the plinth opposite overlooking the market is part of the Norwich War memorial. it looks scruffy sadly from that side but if you walk round it has a nice sculpture and some inscriptions in the other side. In recent years they have moved the wooden WW1 memorial from the Castle to inside City Hall. It’s just on left through those big doors. When City Hall is open as normal it’s worth a look as it’s beautiful. Like a giant wooden book of names. If you visit from the train station the better walk into the city is through the Complete Angler garden and along the river to the Cathedral. Much nicer than seedy Prince of Wales Road. The cosy club looks lovely inside, some beautiful stained glass and art nouveau features. Also there is now a restaurant and bar at the top of one of the buildings near Rose Lane car park (Rooftop gardens.?) that is supposed to have some nice views over the city? The Royal Arcade is beautiful too but seems to have a lot of empty shops now which is a shame. Thanks for doing this video 👍🏻

Just to let you know Tombland was the Old English name for open ground and the market was held there until the cathedral was built. It has nothing to do with the plague. The skeletons found are thought to belong to a church that was demolished when they built the cathedral.

ALWAYS say im going home when i go to Norwich 😍. Also been a NCFC fan since i was 9 now 60 n spent most of my youth at Carrow Rd 💚💛⚽💛💚. Norwich has sooooo much history.....never really appreciated it when i was younger though! Great beaches close by too.

I grew up in North Norfolk and went to school at the posh one in the Cathedral Close. Many hundreds of times walking through Tombland. Very sad to see the clubs closed (I realise this is filmed 3 yrs ago), as I can remember going out regularly to Hys in tombland and then Liquid… and my favourite was Time down on riverside… with the bouncy floor! I took my kids camping a year ago in Norfolk and took them round my old stomping ground… they loved the Castle mall… and how different it is to any other shopping place they’d been to… Did you not fancy a quick sprint down Magdalen Street and go to Anglia Square? I also took my kids to the UEA and the posed where they shot the scenes for the Avengers compound just outside the Sainsbury Centre. I do miss Norwich since I moved to Suffolk in 2005 and then to Wales in 2013… always enjoy going back even if it is only occasionally now. Great vid.

Loved this! A Norwich old'un now, I recall a 1950s city with a 'county town' ambiance, a large cattle market dominating its centre. Anglia TV became a major player ​- think _Sale Of The Century, Survival, Tales Of The Unexpected,_ etc. The Victorian train station (then Norwich Thorpe Station) starred in _The Go Between._ Prince of Wales Road, once a charming Edwardian avenue, declined into a noisy vomfest whenever 'clubland' emptied out, a ghastly low point. City Hall, a '30s gem, was inspired by Stockholm's, hence its clean Scandinavian vibe. Btw, those are lions, not griffins (no eagle's head)! I wandered Elm Hill as a boy, and it's great that it's still so original. The Forum, home of BBC East, rose majestically from the ashes of the uninspiring '60s library building that burned down despite its being 100 yards from the fire station. The revamped Theatre Royal is greatly improved. And nowadays-ubiquitous pedestrianisation was pioneered in 1960's Norwich's London Street. The Castle and Cathedral are both 11C early Norman, originally of Caen (Normandy) stone, though the castle was refaced with English Bath stone in the 19C. The big open Market was all rickety stalls when I was young ​- its reinvention was necessary for health and safety reasons and, Covid notwithstanding, it's a vibrant retail wonder.
