The Norwich Society was founded in 1923 to prevent the demolition of the city's ancient Bishop's Bridge. Since then the Society has actively campaigned to preserve Norwich's heritage - saving historic buildings and preventing over-development in historically sensitive areas. Together with the City Council, the Society founded the Norwich Preservation Trust in the 1960s: since then many properties have been restored, and modern developments are closely monitored. Neil Storey has compiled a selection of images from the Norwich Society collections to mark the Society's eighth anniversary. The city's changing character is revealed through historic photographs of individual buildings, features and streets; battles that were won (and lost) are considered; and notable Society personalities are featured as well.
