Norwich, Norfolk
Norwich is a city in the heart of Norfolk, of which it is the only city and the county town. The heart of Norwich is not in the modernised shopping streets but in the tangled, ancient streets and ways behind the through-roads; Norwich is the most complete medæval town in Britain. these little streets are a jumble of building from every age; the Middle Ages, the Tudor, the Georgian and the modern. Norwich is famous for the number of its ancient parish churches. Amongst them the greatest church is the Cathedral, with one of the highest spires and one of the longest naves in the land, all in perfect architectural harmony. Norwich Castle was founded soon after the Norman Conquest. The city is within the council area of Norwich (Norfolk).
