    Even in the 1970s we were, as a nation, better dressed and more presentable than now. I went to Norwich in 1977 to study at the School of Art, leaving in 1980.

      The world has certainly changed since then. I hope you enjoyed your time at the School of Art. Thanks for your comment.

    I love watching these old films of Norwich, and I always look out for myself or people I knew back then.

      @@ReelFilm2016 No, but I had to pause and look closely at the girl in the white jacket at 1:28 - she looked familiar at first, but on closer examination, it wasn't who I thought.

    Oh wow, my old stomping ground ! A little before my time - the Home Entertainment Centre` was Maplin by the time I got there - but plenty of familiar sights none the less. Thanks for this.

      Hello Sir. Thanks for the comment and hope you are keeping well.
      I bought this from a local Knick knack shop and apparently the film was shot by he owners father, or maybe it was his father in law.
      I wasn’t sure what to expect, but this reel was quite cool.

    At 21 seconds you can see the Nat West bank i went into in 1974, dressed in my suit to see the bank manager to borrow money to buy furniture, when we first got married, how times have changed

      Why would you want cars racing around the city centre? All the roads lead to car parks nowadays. Not really sure what the issue is

    Looks a better place. Something went wrong in the 21st century. Everything just looks cleaner, people look happier and well dressed. Society was in a much better place.

    Yes a lovely era days where good
    Housing and property's looked lovely
    Where I live is a s..t hole west earlham is a landlords haven they have students and unsavoury people in their property's the gardens are a shambles the paths full of litter
    I'm afraid to say that the Area I live has dramatically changed
    My uncle passed away a few year ago and was in the raf a proud man and a fantastic gardener
    When he passed away a landlord bought the property and moved in student's
    Now the once gorgeous garden I filled with weeds the once lovely baths you walked are cover in a mat of weeds broken gutters rubbish left everywhere
    Yes it's now wonder why earlham has been named as one of the top ten most deprived and undesirable places to live in the country on a recent pole
    A shame

      @ReelFilm2016 it's crazy because of the expansion of the university of East anglia more students more landlord's and less housing for new families starting out
      Norwich is not a city if I was an outsider I would want visit as is great Yarmouth which I recently visited omg what has happened there is absolutely scarey a dangerous place to live in certain areas different cultures causing friction I heard of a local who lived there all his life not good
