  • NORFOLK MINK PROJECT Annual Newsletter 7, January – December 2019 *** Website ***
    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.

    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.
