The decision to demolish Bishop Bridge was the catalyst that brought the Norwich Society into being in 1923. This is the story of how they managed to save this part of our Heritage.

This talk is about some of what can been seen around the city that tells you about times past. This includes plaques, boundary markers, street name signs, flood level markers and some memorials. John will also talk separately about war memorials.

But this space has not always been so - from a bone depository to a bell tower, medieval tourist shops and an early food bank, the early Close was a busy place, full of monastic life and the people tasked to support it.
