@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk I found out by doing my family tree, it was an open secret, found his wife jane & 2 of 3 children (john & alice) who are all buried in dickleburgh. The youngest child ada was born after he went to prison, he was sentenced to death but got life. Died in harleston in January 1929. Took a long time to find what could be his grave.

Hi, good voice capture there. To me, it sounded like Grourdi, or gourdi, which is a gourd. A bit of a strange one, but I did a google search for any gourd legends and, coincidently the first thing I saw was a gourd and cave legend(even though its a Hawaiian legend I do think spirit guides to the core message of the story) Amazingly it references a bricked up door and sadly a burial behind it. www.nps.gov/articles/000/legend-of-the-gourd.htm

Hi, thank-you for commenting. The footage was filmed over a few visits and the time the recording in the crypt took place was on a calm and sunny day so there was no rain or significant wind as the camera was perched inside the vault. There wasn't any wildlife inside the crypt or nearby - I had a clear view of the camera at all times from the graveyard and left it running undisturbed for a few minutes - I appreciate everyone has their point of view though - so no worries as to any theories

So I take it that what I was told about the old Tombland toilets being an air raid shelter was true then. Apparently after the war the council didn’t know what to do with it, so built toilets in there, and the sloped walls around the top were built to remember the shape of the sandbags piled up around the entrance. Absolutely crazy that they removed those top walls, it could have been made into a flower bed or something, so that it could still represent the air raid shelter entrance as a tribute. Norwich Council not giving a damn about Norwich history yet again.
@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolkАй бұрын
It is a shame more of these historic places aren’t cherished. Parts of the old city walls still stand in areas, but despite being in decline the section around Carrow Hill is still spectacular. The air raid shelter featured in the video is located near to the cathedral and is sometimes part of the Norfolk Heritage Open Days held every September 🙂

Hi - it is a devastating shame to lose such an iconic building in such a manner. The top floor was in remarkably good condition - I think it was saved by the fact the staircase was removed many years ago so explorers were never able to gain access so easily. I think there was possibly a basement / cellars underneath too but these probably got filled with rubble after the building was sadly demolished

We’ve often said ‘look at that church just stood in the middle of nowhere’ and add it to the list of places to visit. Had no idea about there being an RAF base there but then, it shouldn’t be a surprise as there were so many over East Anglia. I’m sure the information about all the RAF bases is available but, from our point of view, don’t know about most of them. It’s also sad to see that house start to decay as it looks as though it would be a peaceful location to live.
