Embark upon a journey through Norfolk’s eventful history, from the earliest times to the present day. From the discovery of fossil footprints dating back nearly one million years, to Boudica’s revolt, the Roman occupation, the creation of the Norfolk Broads during the Middles Ages and the growth of the textile industry and agricultural advances, this county has always been at the forefront of innovation and the development of our nation. Mustard manufacturing, Viking farmers, friendly invasions and digging up ancient mammoths – we do things differently here in Norfolk.
Until December 2018 JOHN A. DAVIES was Chief Curator for Norfolk Museums Service (NMS), member of the Senior Management Team and Keeper of Archaeology. Prior to retiring, he was Project Director (at NMS) for the major project to re-develop the historic Norman Keep at Norwich Castle – the largest museum heritage project in the UK. He previously led the Interreg European project ‘Norman Connections’, linking historic sites in Normandy and southern England. He has worked as an archaeologist in Norfolk since 1984 and is a highly experienced museum professional of over 30 years.
