What we do

We love living in Norwich and not only enjoy researching and documenting projects but also being able to share our work. We are the first to admit that we are more "enthusiasts" than historians and although we set ourselves high standards believe that such activity should be fun. As a team we can each work to our strengths which allows us to present our work in a variety of media i.e book format, the websites, presentations and by film.

Our Background.

Michael has lived in Norwich all of his life, Frances arrived in 1983 for a year but could never find a good enough reason to leave! After a career in IT, Michael is the techie whilst Frances' background, involving links with both the corporate and voluntary sectors, is used to good effect in organising and researching. We both particularly enjoy meeting and working with a huge range of people from many different backgrounds and helping to preserve and promote Norwich's rich heritage.

Future Plans

After writing 5 books and developing several large websites over the last eight years we have decided to take a slightly different direction in 2018. We will be researching and publishing articles about the heritage of Norwich, but this will be done online rather than in print. We will also be releasing some of the video work, which will be added to our YouTube channel. We are currently quite advanced with this expecting to release the first articles late spring 2018.
