  • Norfolk Through a Lens
    NORFOLK THROUGH A LENS A guide to the Photographic Collections held by Norfolk Library & Information Service 2 NORFOLK THROUGH A LENS A guide to the Photographic Collections held by Norfolk Library & Information Service History and Background The systematic collecting of photographs of Norfolk really began in 1913 when the Norfolk Photographic Survey was formed, although there are many images in the collection which date from shortly after the invention of photography (during the 1840s) and a great deal which are late Victorian. In less than one year over a thousand photographs were deposited in Norwich Library and by the mid- 1990s the collection had expanded to 30,000 prints and a similar number of negatives. The devastating Norwich library fire of 1994 destroyed around 15,000 Norwich prints, some of which were early images. Fortunately, many of the most important images were copied before the fire and those copies have since been purchased and returned to the library holdings. In 1999 a very successful public appeal was launched to replace parts of the lost archive and expand the collection. Today the collection (which was based upon the survey) contains a huge variety of material from amateur and informal work to commercial pictures. This includes newspaper reportage, portraiture, building and landscape surveys, tourism and advertising. There is work by the pioneers of photography in the region; there are collections by talented and dedicated amateurs as well as professional art photographers and early female practitioners such as Olive Edis, Viola Grimes and Edith Flowerdew. More recent images of Norfolk life are now beginning to filter in, such as a village survey of Ashwellthorpe by Richard Tilbrook from 1977, groups of Norwich punks and Norfolk fairs from the 1980s by Paul Harley and re-development images post 1990s.

  • 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.

  • June 2019 Tour Report Norfolk in Early Summer with Nick Acheson
    Tour Report UK – Norfolk in Early Spring with Nick Acheson 10 – 14 June 2019 Norfolk hawker dragonfly Stone curlew Bittern Marsh harrier Compiled by Nick Acheson 01962 302086 [email protected] www.wildlifeworldwide.com Tour Leader: Nick Acheson Day 1: Monday 10 June 2019 Months in advance, when planning tours to see swallowtail butterflies, dragonflies, wildflowers and summer birds in June, you don’t give a great deal of thought to a wild storm hitting — bringing wind, heavy rain and floods — and sticking around for a whole week. But such a storm hit today as you all reached Norfolk for the start of your tour. We met in the early afternoon at Knights Hill Hotel and, despite the rain, decided to head for RSPB Titchwell Marsh. Here we did manage to see a number of very nice birds, including many avocets and Mediterranean gulls, plenty of gadwall, teal and shoveler, a female marsh harrier, a ringed plover, a Sandwich tern, a fleeting bearded tit and a flyover spoonbill. However probably the most striking aspect of the afternoon was the relentless rain, which soaked us through whenever we were foolhardy enough to step outside a hide. Day 2: Tuesday 11 June 2019 In our original plan we should have headed to the Brecks today, but we decided instead — given the forecast of heavy rain all day — to drive along the North Norfolk coast, in the knowledge that at Norfolk Wildlife Trust Cley Marshes we could at least shelter in the hides. When we reached Cley, it was indeed raining very hard so we sped to Bishop’s Hide, the closest of all the hides.

  • Boat Trip Operators – NWT Ranworth Broad & Hickling Broad
    Boat trip Operators – NWT Ranworth Broad & Hickling Broad The Boat Trip Operators will be based at both NWT Ranworth Broad & NWT Hickling Broad and will be employed on an ‘on demand’ casual basis where required as part of a staff rota system. Norfolk Wildlife Trust has Visitor Centres situated on five of its nature reserves at Hickling Broad NNR, Holme Dunes NNR, Cley Marshes, Ranworth Broad, and Weeting Heath NNR Norfolk Wildlife Trust welcomes 250,000 people every year to these reserves. As well as ensuring visitors are well received and our Visitor Centres are in good order, we seek to increase Trust membership through active recruitment and income through sales, permits and donations. It is expected that the Boat trip operators will support the Trust in its commitment to improving the visitor experience by providing information, interpretation and a friendly welcome, whilst providing a quality service to promote the professional image of the Trust. The Boat Trip Operators will be responsible for the daily operation of a ferry service from Malthouse Staithe to the NWT “Broads Wildlife Centre” at Ranworth Broad and also for taking visitors on boat trips to experience Ranworth Broad. At Hickling Broad there are daily water trails and occasional evening boat trips. The boats used are based on a “reedlighter” type design, carry up to twelve passengers and are powered by petrol and electric motors. The post holders will also be required to undertake general maintenance on the boat as required, undertake daily checks on both the boat and life jackets and ensure the health and safety of all passengers.

But too many of them are suffering from neglect, decay and pressure from development. Heritage at Risk is a national project to identify these endangered places and then help secure their future. In 2008 English Heritage published its first register of Heritage at Risk – a region-by-region list of all the Grade I and II* listed buildings (and Grade II listed buildings in London), structural scheduled monuments, registered battlefields and protected wreck sites in England known to be ‘at risk’.
