Over the Water Walking Tour

Maddermarket Theatre, Saint John's Alley, Norwich, Norfolk, NR2 1DR

  • Multiple dates available
  • In person
  • Pre-booking required

This tour takes us to the north bank of the Wensum, an ancient part of the city with a fascinating collection of buildings.

Norwich Over the Water was one of the old Great Wards of the city, having been a site of habitation well before the Norman Conquest. From those early days it was also a place of trade and industry. Today it is a quieter part of the city, but it contains a great variety of architecture, including places of worship and industrial buildings mostly now repurposed for other use. We also learn something of the people who lived and worked here.
