I spent 2 days in Norwich this week, it is a great place. Not too big, not too small but filled with history. It has a fantastic Castle and Cathedral built with rock from Normandy almost a 1000 years ago. It is almost impossible to look in any direction without seeing a few big old churches – today it has more than 35 large churches, it had 52 at some point.
\nMany of these are closed due to the decline in church going folk, turned into book shops, museums or galleries. I have some good photos of some of these churches that I will put up here in the next few days. Apart from all this ancient history there is also a lot of really characterful locations throughout the city. The photo here is from a old book shop called The Scientific Anglian, as far as I can find out it was forced to close down when the owner could not afford the alterations that was needed to comply with a new set of health and safety laws.
