    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😁

    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.

    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.

    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 🙂

    A great city to visit. Been twice pre Covid, the market was bustling with some great stalls and little food outlets. The city has a very friendly vibe to it. Ideal for a quieter city break.

    Mousehold Heath is famous for Ketts rebellion. And at one time the Heath spread further towards heartsease. Where the roads are now and dunelm etc are all used to be part of mousehold Heath. Shame they replaced it with roads though.

      The area at the top of Gurney road at Mousehold, the retail park, school, sport field and houses used to be a WW1 airfield called Royal Air Force Mousehold Heath. A couple of aircraft crashed on the Heath during world war two.
