Here's Episode 3 of High Street Histories, the third in the ten-part series of illustrated conversations between Ivan Bunn and Dean Parkin. Travelling back in time to explore Lowestoft's historic High Street, Ivan and Dean share stories about the buildings and shops found there, past and present.
The third installment looks into the history of possibly the oldest house in the High Street and its various incarnations - as pub, warehouse and shop. And how nearby once stood a Georgian House that later became a hotel.
All episodes of High Street Histories have an accompanying worksheet, ideal for young people age 5-11, which can be downloaded from the Think Lowestoft website: www.thinklowestoft.co.uk
Filmed, created and edited by Dean Parkin, featuring archive photographs from Ivan Bunn, The Jack Rose Collection, The Bert Collyer Collection.
