Norwich, the Norfolk Broads & East Coast Although its reputation is mostly rural, with people associating the county with the wetlands of the Norfolk Broads, there are the towns of Norwich and Kings Lynn which offer shopping and nightlife opportunities as well as some excellent seaside destinations such as Cromer and Great Yarmouth. Many coastal areas are protected sites of outstanding natural beauty where a wealth of bird and animal life reside. There are also some popular attractions such as Banham Zoo that has a great collection of big cats and Great Yarmouth’s sea life centre, one of the biggest of its kind in the country. Or head to Oxburgh Hall, a stately home surrounded by a moat was in the same family for 500 years and is now in the National Trusts care. If boating is your thing then head to the Broads themselves and spend some time ‘messing about’ on the 120 miles of navigable waterways.” Places to visit Bewilderwood A huge, award winning forest of family fun and outdoor adventure in the heart of the Norfolk Broads.

NORFOLK MINK PROJECT Annual Newsletter 7, January – December 2019 *** Website https://thenorfolkminkproject.org.uk/ *** 2019 STATISTICS Total Mink Caught 78 Rafts Deployed 465 Traps on Loan 449 * Our website is now regularly used by the public to report Volunteers Involved sightings * 305 It has been another busy year for the project and, although the number of mink caught has gone back up again compared to last year (50), we still have far fewer mink in the county than when the project started. However, an increase always leaves me wondering if we missed a number last year or are we improving our control? The answer is likely to be, a bit of both! Some of the increase is due to the project now having more resource in the far west of the county, with new areas being trapped, and also an improvement in efficiency through the increased use of automated trap monitoring devices. Also, at our current level of control, we miss some mink each year that will go on to breed and there is a degree of immigration. To protect our wildlife from mink we have two options, either continue with control indefinite- ly or, if it is feasible, to try and eradicate them. Eradication completely removes the threat to native species and will be much less costly in the long term, but is it possible? For a num- ber of reasons we believe that the time is now right to go for eradication and this is set out in more detail later. But first we should look at what we achieved together in 2019.

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.

David Bullen Limited 15B Ramirez Road Rackheath, Norwich Norfolk NR13 6GD
David Bullen Limited 15b Ramirez Road Rackheath, Norwich Norfolk NR13 6GD Design & Access Statement in support of application for the construction of a new workshop and exhibit room at RAF Neatishead Radar Museum. 1.0) Introduction 1.1) The application The proposal in this application is to construct a new workshop and exhibit space in the grounds of the existing museum. 1.2) The objectives There is one very specific objective to this proposal. The new building is to house a key historical artifact. The Type14 Mk2 Mobile Radar that the museum possesses currently lives outside and is in a dire state or repair, being attacked by the elements every year. It is reported to be the ONLY remaining example of this type in existence in the entire world. Hence the importance to restore and maintain it for future posterity is crucial. 1.3) Client’s brief “The RAF Radar Museum is quite unique. The artifacts we have on show are often rare. We have space to house these artifacts except the Type 14 Mobile Radar unit. We need to construct a new building to house this truly historic item. The space needs to be suitably sized so that we can, over time, restore the Type 14 back to its former glory. Not only that, the new space will give us room to put more items on display that are currently out of public sight. Thus improving the overall experience of the museum. Once the Type 14 had been restored, it will live in the new workshop. However, the workshop will also allow us to repair and maintain other items on site that we are currently unable to do” 2.0) The Site 2.1) Site location The site is located to the south side of the RRH Neatishead base.

Marconi at the Museum.Pdf
Foreword worked for Marconi Radar Systems Ltd from mid-1970 for about thirteen years, a very short time by comparison with so many of my colleagues who made the company their principal career. It was even shorter by comparison with those whose life’s work was radar, starting in the military during the Second World War then moving into the civilian world. I I was an adolescent aspiring to adulthood during much of the Cold War, and I had the good fortune to find secure employment with MRSL for a formative period of my life. I remember my years working for the company with great affection. They were days of certainty: what we were doing forever felt right, working for a self-assured organisation with great breadth and depth in capabilities, always to achieve the highest standards of quality in the national interest. Against the backdrop of the international tensions of the times, those days of clarity of purpose and a sense of belonging were amongst the most fulfilling of my working life. Those of us, including me, who look back on our company’s name with pride can only despair at its being tipped into obscurity. By the time that process started, I was lucky enough to be long gone from the scene, but those financial manoeuvres by the new management of GEC in the sad days after Lord Weinstock’s reign had a very rare effect: they aligned the disbelieving and derogatory opinions of so many aghast City commentators with those of a very large community of Marconi engineers from many disciplines.

This document looks at the likely impacts of climate change and sea level rise on the special features of the Broads and suggests a way forward. It is a summary of the full Broads Climate Adaptation Plan prepared as part of the UK National Adaptation Programme. To get the best future for the Broads and those who live, work and play here it makes sense to start planning for adaptation now. The ‘climate-smart’ approach led by the Broads Climate Partnership seeks to inspire and support decision makers and local communities in planning for our changing environment. It is supported by a range of information and help available through the Broads oCommunity initiative (see page 18).
