EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an old engraving titled "An Old Plan of Norwich" created by the English School in the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical cityscape of Norwich. The intricate details within this engraving transport us back in time to 1883 when it was first published in The Graphic magazine. From an aerial perspective, we can observe the bustling streets and landmarks that defined this vibrant city centuries ago. The burnt castle stands as a reminder of past conflicts and serves as a testament to Norwich's rich history. As our eyes wander across the print, we discover various points of interest such as the market cross, roadways leading to chapels and cathedrals, and even fields stretching towards Yarmouth. Notable locations like St Michael's Church and Mount, Duke of Norfolk's Place, Kett's Castle, St Andrew's Hall are all beautifully depicted with meticulous attention to detail. The abundance of wood material throughout suggests that timber played a significant role in housing and accommodation during that era. We catch glimpses of dwellings made from firwood while also noticing stacks of firewood ready for kindling. This remarkable engraving transports us into a fairy tale-like world where castles dot the landscape and ancient structures evoke stories waiting to be told. It is through prints like these that we can appreciate both the architectural heritage and daily life experiences from times long gone by.
