This first issue is bound to be somewhat experimental in both content and format, for the Journal can and should evolve according to the needs of the Society. ‘Journal’ sounds a rather grand title for a relatively small Society to adopt but it is the term often used to distinguish a permanent record of articles from the more ephemeral contents of a Newsletter. The Journal will be annual and its principal function will be to further the objectives of the Society. These are set out in the constitution and in summary are: • to study the local history of this area • to publish the results. The Journal can therefore carry a wide range of topics covering all periods. The most important point to make is that the contents must be contributed by members. The editor will supply some material but is not going to fill each issue – no contributions, no Journal! Local history is not confined to the distant past, even yesterday is now history and the sooner changes are recorded the better, before the evidence is lost.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ilBSTRAGT The Cromer Moraine forms a distinctive geographical region near the coast of the northern part of the County of Norfolk. A pro­ nounced characteristic of this region is the vridespread cover of heatb-land, far less extensive than in former times. This heathland appears in its turn to have developed from an original woodland cover which was destroyed by the depredations of man and his domesticated animals . It has been necessary first to delimit the region as accurately as possible and this has been accomplished by means of a detailed study of local topography and of well-sections. The earliest evidence of the location of heathland comes from tlie Domesday Survey and this has been confirmed by references to heathland in various other documents dovm to 1750. By the middle of the eighteenth century the new developments in agriculture^ or ’Norfolk Husbandry’ as it was called, became widely known and practised, resulting in this region in a greatly accelerated reclama­ tion of heathland; so that by the time of the Tithe Survey (183S-42) less than a hundred years later over 4000 acres of heath had been reclaimed.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

  • Winter/Spring 2005 ● Issue No.9
    Winter/Spring 2005 ● Issue No.9 HOLKHAM NEWSLETTER HERE might be a perception that all the changes we have seen at Holkham have taken place only in the last five or six years.This process might have been more rapid in that time, but that only Treflects the speed of change in the world in general. Change has always been with us. Mick Thompson, recently retired from the Hall, recalls how he helped to modernise four milking parlours on the Estate.Well, how many have we now? None: this is change brought on by economic circumstances. I started farming at Burnham Norton, 36 years ago, with 11 men. By the time the Holkham Farming Company took over, that was down to only three, again a reflection of changed economic circumstances, and a necessary adaptation to new farming practices. Now, seven men look after 5,000 acres. A good example of adaptation is the transformation of the 18th century Triumphal Arch into a chic annexe of The Victoria Hotel, thus turning a long-standing liability to economic advantage, and moreover, making use of a perfectly sound building. I never see the point of new build if existing buildings can be satisfactorily adapted without compromising their character. But with change, it is important to retain and value the best of the past.
