  • 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.

  • Hunstanton Neighbourhood Development Plan – Draft Version 4.2
    Hunstanton Neighbourhood Development Plan – draft version 4.2 Introduction 1. Hunstanton’s Neighbourhood Development Plan (HNDP) has been modelled on a number of other parish neighbourhood plans with the intention of avoiding the re-invention of the wheel but at the same time relating the plan to the uniqueness of the town. The other plans include those of Brancaster, South Wootton, West Winch & North Runcton in West Norfolk; Langham and Uppingham in Rutland; St Ives in Cornwall; Exminster and Newton Abbot in Devon and East Preston in West Sussex Background – The Localism Act 2. In November 2011, the Localism Act was introduced with the aim of devolving more decision making powers from central government and providing: New freedoms and flexibilities for local government; New rights and powers for communities and individuals; Reform to make the planning system more democratic and more effective; Reform to ensure that decisions about housing and infrastructure are taken locally. 3. Through the development of a Neighbourhood Plan (NP), a community will now be able to propose the direction and degree of its own future development. 4. The Localism Act of 2011 introduced Neighbourhood Planning into the hierarchy of spatial planning in England. Once a Neighbourhood Plan has been accepted, it becomes a legal document and then sits alongside the Core Strategy (CS) and the Site Allocations and Development Management Policies Document (SADMP) and the County Minerals and Waste Plans. It informs all future planning decisions that the local planning authority makes about that particular community. 5. The HNDP describes a vision for the future of the town, which has been established through engagement with local residents and extensive consultation throughout the area.

High Schools’ Choir Festival More than 300 students from City of Norwich School, Flegg High School, Hethersett Old Hall School, Notre Dame High School, Wymondham College, Thetford Grammar School, Thorpe St Andrew High School and the Norwich School performed in the annual Norfolk High Schools' Choir Festival Concert at St Andrew's Hall, Norwich on Thursday 6 November 2014. Conducted by Andrew Morley, the programme included Fauré’s Requiem op 48, Walton Crown Imperial and Zadok the Priest. Ian Cooper, Assistant Head of Norfolk County Council’s Music Service, which organises the event, said: “The festival has been running for a number of years and the pupils really enjoy it. “It’s not something that all of the schools can do on their own and having the orchestral accompaniment gives them a unique opportunity to come together and sing together in a large scale concert at St Andrew’s Hall.” Norfolk County Youth Orchestra Concert at West Road Cambridge with Irena Josifoska NCYO’s first concert of the season was at West Road Concert Hall, Cambridge and we were delighted to be joined by the talented young Serbian Cellist ‘Irena Josifoska’ (whom we met during the Triorca project) to play the Elgar cello concerto as part of an all English programme. The next NCYO concert will be on Friday 10 April 2015 at St Andrew's Hall, Norwich.
