This is Brilliant... firstly I love Miss Lakes voice, clarity and obvious passion for her subject, would have loved her for a history teacher. Secondly big bravo to you John for editing the tape woven into a film with photos. Very much enjoyed this.
Thank you Melita, I enjoyed her story and I enjoyed finding relevant images. Glad you enjoyed it - you're right, Miss Lake would have been a great history teacher.
I really enjoyed this video! I loved listening to the wonderful Miss Lake. Was she a history teacher? I was surprised by the clarity of the recording. "Have you got any more of her tapes, John?" Your photographs and graphics really brought the story to life. Excellent. More please!
Thank you so much ! I really appreciate your work ...so inventive and creative. You are a talented young man. I am looking forward to the rest of the tapes.
Very interesting. The ladies voice reminded me of Annette Mills and muffin the mule, with all its received pronunciation . It did make me smile. It was suitable for its time and audience but I couldn't help feeling that I'd have liked it even more with the Norfolk/ especially Norwich accent. Anyway we'll done for putting it together with the pictures. Thanks for making the effort to bring pictures back to life.
Thank you John. Truly fascinating stuff. Since the narration was on audio cassette, did you add the imagery? Whatever, it all goes together well. I've no doubt that Miss Lake would be delighted with your presentation.
Thanks very much Peter. Yes I added the images, which was a bit of a challenge when her narration went back 1000 years. It was a very enjoyable challenge.
I wish they hadn't torn down the Motte and Bailey wall that surrounded the castle, that would have been quite a sight. But what I really want made is a statue of Robert Kett and the thousands of other heroes who died trying to stop the theft of the common land in the 16th century.
Beautiful video with interesting information about Norwich 👍109
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it👍
Thank you. I so can't wait to get back home next year.
I can completely understand!
Excellent mix of historical and newer photos John. 😊
Thanks Simon!
What a find ! I'm so glad I subscribed to this brilliant 'Lost Norwich ' series .
Thank you, I very much appreciate your comment
This is superb John! A great watch and interesting to see an alternative, much earlier perception 👏
It's amazing how long ago 1981 was - seems like yesterday to me!
Thank you for a very different video.
Such clear pronunciation.
I’m quietly confident that it would come in handy if I need to cut some glass.

Brilliant comment 🤭 Thanks Adrian.
Excellent, when I was a kid I spent many an hour in the Lazer House Library.
Great, shame it closed along with a number of others.

Thanks John. I'd been staring at this tape for years, so it's great to see it come alive.
That's great, thanks Harry for your help. Part two awaits.
Absolutely great history.
Father in law volunteers for chatterbox. Hopefully you’ll be able to choreograph more in a joint venture.
Thank you. Yes, there's another tape to come in a while.

Thanks, glad you liked it!
Lovely video! I'm glad the narrator pronounced Wymondham correctly!
Thank you, I enjoyed the precision of her voice, the rolled r's and stuff like that.

Thank you, there will be one further tape at some point, probably around February.

Thank you very much. Young man 🤭
Very well and creatively made. An excellent idea to combine the narrative with the pictures, and with such precision.
Thank you, it's kind of you to say so. I wasn't sure how it would turn out!
@@JohnAtkinsLostNorwich "Extremely well" would be my description.
@@InArcadiaSum thank you👍
ohh this was soo interesting, Please make more videos like this. 😌💖
Thank you. There will be another one featuring Miss Lake in February.

Thanks very much. I think there are elements of Norfolk speech - especially noticeable when she refers to Sprowston Road and Chapelfield Road.
@@JohnAtkinsLostNorwichIndeed. Notice how she rolls her 'Rs'.
Excellent mix of newer and historical photos John. 😊
Thank you Simon, sadly I had no photos from 1066!
@@JohnAtkinsLostNorwich Hmm, King William must have forgotten his camera - ! 🤣

Has anyone got an idea what was on the mound before the Norman castle. Also any links to Norwich maps pre 1300 would be great.
That's a good point! No idea I'm afraid.

That's a great thought, he's a Norfolk hero.
