  • 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.

  • Directions to Little Barsham
    DIRECTIONS TO LITTLE BARSHAM If you are using a sat nav the address is – Lower Farm Barns Green Way North Barsham Walsingham Norfolk NR22 6AP If you are using the What3Words app – expel.download.vessel General directions – From London and the A11, take the A1065 to Swaffham. From Norwich take the A1067. From King’s Lynn take the A148 Cromer road. From the A148 Fakenham bypass, follow signs for the B1105 to Wells-next-the- Sea. Very shortly after turning off the bypass the B1105 turns off to the left at a small staggered crossroad. This has a signpost to Wells and also Holkham. (If you pass a white cottage on the left you have gone too far. If you come to the church and pub you have gone much too far!) After about a mile you will see pale blue field gates on either side, then as the road rises there is a crossroads and a sign to ‘The Barshams’ . Turn right here and carry on down the hill. Continue past farm buildings on right, through woods and wind along the valley until you pass a row of terrace cottages on the left. At the green by the telephone box turn right and follow the road down to entrance gates to the barns on the left on the lower road. Please pull off the road to open gates and close behind you. Drive through main gate to courtyard and you will find Little Barsham on your right. Park on the shingle as close to the barn as possible. Hope you have a safe journey and find us without any problems! .
