Synopsis

Norfolk has a wealth of important archaeological sites, historic buildings and historic landscapes. This guide is the first to use them to tell the county's rich history. Starting with real footprints of people who lived here nearly one million years ago, the authors take you to prehistoric monuments, Roman forts, early and medieval churches and Nelson's monument, right up to twentieth-century defensive sites. The book describes each site in detail and is well illustrated with aerial photographs and ground-level shots.
