Norwich, August, 1856.

INDEX.

NORWICH.

Norwich is a city and county of itself, and the largest on the eastern side of England. It is distant 108 miles N.E. by N. from London; 43 miles N. from Ipswich; 42 miles E. by S. from Lynn Regis; 19 miles W. from Yarmouth; and 72 miles N.E. from Cambridge. Its population, according to the census of 1851, was 68,195 inhabitants, and it has 36 parishes.

It is delightfully situated on the banks of the river Wensum, and at one time contained so many gardens and pleasure grounds, as to be frequently termed “a city in an orchard.” The streets of Norwich have of late years been much improved; they are well paved, and contain some good shops. In the environs are some beautiful walks, and villa residences of the inhabitants.

The Market Place is a fine oblong square, surrounded with shops. In the centre there formerly stood a cross, which was erected in the reign of Edward III., and contained a small chapel, or oratory, which was taken down in 1732. Opposite the Gentleman’s Walk is a fine statue of the late Duke of Wellington, erected in 1854. The statue of Lord Nelson, which until lately stood near the Guildhall, is now removed to a more suitable situation in the Upper Close. The market days are Wednesday and Saturday—the latter the principal one; and no market is better supplied with the necessaries and comforts of life. The Skin Market is held in the Old Haymarket, opposite the Savings’ Bank. The Fish Market is held behind the houses on the west side, and is well supplied. Norwich is considered exceedingly healthy. It is defended from the easterly winds by the Mousehold Hills, which, combined with the abundance of springs in the city and its suburbs, and the Health of Towns’ Act, render it an extremely healthy locality.

Norwich seems to have arisen from the ruin of Venta Icenorum, now Caister, the capital of the Iceni, 3 miles south. In 575, it is said to have been fortified by Uffa, first king of the East Angles. In 642, it was a chief seat of his successor Anna. In the time of Alfred the Great, and afterwards, it was attacked by the Danes, and became the capital of Guthrum. The place rose to importance, and had a mint; and in the reign of Edward the Confessor it was of that greatness, that it had 25 churches, and 1,320 burgesses. In 1094, Bishop Herbert de Losinga moved the see here from Thetford. This bishop, in 1096, began the cathedral. In 1336, a number of Flemish weavers settled here, and greatly improved the worsted and clothing trades. In 1565, a further accession of these artizans was obtained, in consequence of the persecution in the Netherlands.

Next to Manchester, London and Glasgow, Norwich is one of the largest seats of the weaving trade. The previous remarks shew that it is of great antiquity; and the trade has taken fresh vigour from the introduction of the factory system. The chief productions are bombazines, crapes, gauzes, challis, mousselin de laine, fillover shawls, silk shawls, bandannas, camlets, mohair, paramattas, poplins, bareges, glove cloths, sewing cotton, coach lace, horse hair, sacking, sailcloth, &c. There are also dyeries, foundries, machine works, tanneries, breweries, maltkilns, coach works, rope works, chemical works, soaperies, paper mills, pianoforte and organ works, and the boot and shoe trade employ several hundred hands. Norwich has a Chamber of Commerce.

The city and county of the city are governed by a corporation, consisting of a mayor, 16 aldermen, and 48 councillors, with a sheriff, under-sheriff, recorder, judge of the borough court, town-clerk, clerk of the peace, coroner, jailer, superintendent of police, four sergeants-at-mace, water-bailiff, bellman, &c. There is a separate commission of the peace, with 26 justices, holding quarter sessions and daily sessions. The Borough Court is held every day. There is also a Court of Pleas and Court of Conscience. The revenues of the corporation are about £15,000 a year. The city returns two Members to Parliament. Assizes and quarter sessions for the county and city are held at the usual periods. There is a County Court; Will and Ecclesiastical Courts are held for the diocese and archdeaconry. There is a large fair for horses and cattle, called Tombland Fair, held on the day before Good Friday, and pleasure fairs at Easter and Whitsuntide.

Norwich Castle is situated on the summit of a hill, nearly in the centre of the city. It has a most striking appearance, and is full of interest, both to the antiquary, artist, and historian. A stone erection, or royal castle, is believed to have been built here on Uffa’s intrenchments, about the year 642, and was one of the chief seats of Anna, king of the East Angles. It was often attacked and nearly destroyed by the Danes, but was partly rebuilt by Canute, after he had obtained sole power in England. Mr. Wilkins says, although the greater part of it might be built in the reign of Canute, “it is, notwithstanding, in the style of architecture practised by the Saxons, long before England became subject to the Danes, and is the best exterior specimen of this kind of architecture extant.” The promontory on which the keep of this castle is built, appears to be chiefly the work of nature, excepting what has, probably, been thrown out from the inner vallum; for it may be observed that the ground from the castle, for the best part of a mile southwards, is nearly level with the upper ballium, although it dips to the west, and most rapidly to the east. The area of the whole castle, including the three ditches which circumscribed it, could not be less than twenty-three acres; and the principal entrance was from Berg or Burgh street, i.e., the street leading to the castle—through the barbican or advanced work at the entrance of the castle over a bridge—across the outward vallum which was at the south end of what is now called Golden Ball street.

The interior of the castle has undergone such a number of alterations, with the view of adapting it to its use as a county gaol, that all traces of its ancient apartments have long been lost. It formerly contained a royal chapel, free from ecclesiastical control, and dedicated to St. Nicholas. The first rural dean of the deanery of Norwich, in 1221, pretended to spiritual jurisdiction in this chapel, but for his temerity was obliged to supplicate forgiveness from the king.

The castle was originally defended by three walls and ditches; each ditch having a bridge over it. The outer ditch has been filled up from time immemorial. The middle one was levelled in the last century: traces of it may be discovered on the north side, where the yards of the houses are often from 18 to 20 feet below the road. The inner ditch extended round the bottom of the hill upon which the keep is standing, and is now a tasteful plantation with a gravelled walk in the centre, bounded by an iron palisading. It is worthy notice that the space within this palisading, although in the centre of the city boundary, is the property of the county. The bridge which crossed the inner ditch is still standing, and consists of one large circular arch, 40 feet in span. It is supposed that this is the original bridge erected by the Saxons: at its termination upon the hill are the remains of two circular towers, which are believed to have flanked the portal of the ballium wall. Upon this bridge the county criminals are executed: the thoughts of the visitor will probably recur to one, who a few years since suffered for crimes unparalleled in atrocity.

The fine panoramic view which a walk round the summit of the hill affords, will not soon be forgotten by a stranger. We may venture to assert that no town in the kingdom contains in its centre an elevation which affords so extensive and agreeable a promenade. All the churches and public buildings in the city may be distinctly seen, bounded in the distance by Mousehold Heath, and the pleasant villages of Costessey, Thorpe, Catton, Bixley, and Whitlingham.

At the east end of the castle stands the New County Gaol, erected in 1824 upon the site of a less convenient building, pulled down for the purpose. It is surrounded by a high wall cased with granite, and surmounted by battlements. The interior is commodious, well adapted for the health of the prisoners, and in every respect suited for proper prison regulations. The governor’s house faces the entrance, and commands an entire view of the various parts of the building. Besides the family apartments, it contains a committee-room for the visiting magistrates, and a chapel for the prisoners. From this, branch three wings, each of which contains a double row of cells upon the upper and ground floors. Crossing these, are single rows of cells, and an arcade for the perambulations of the prisoners when the weather will not allow their walking in the yard. Behind these are three other wings with arcades below, and upon the upper floor, double rows of cells: in all there are 225 cells, and the average number of prisoners is about 120. The tread-mill here is not altogether “labour in vain;” for attached to it is a machine for raising water. Not only is the silent system adopted, but at the mill each prisoner is separated from his neighbour by a wooden partition. Industry is the order of the day; mat-making—oakum-picking—carpentry—shoe-making, and other useful occupations, tend to make the prisoners contributors to the cost of their maintenance. A schoolmaster is kept, and every official is considered his auxiliary. The chaplain and governor are both known to be indefatigable in their efforts to create in the minds of the prisoners a distaste for vicious pursuits; and in not a few instances have they been attended with complete success.

Upon the spacious declivity at the foot of the bridge is held the Cattle Market, the largest in England (London excepted). The market is held every Saturday, and upon that day the visitor will have an opportunity of witnessing such a show of agricultural live stock as no other provincial town can furnish. Moreover, he will not fail to be interested in the portly appearance and rich brogue of the principal actors in the busy scene; for various specimens of the “Norfolk Farmer” may here be seen to full perfection; and we would strongly advise that the chance be not neglected.

On the north-east side of the castle, at the bottom of the hill, stands the Shirehall, erected in 1822, and opened in the following year. It is an imitation of the later period of the pointed style of architecture. The County Assizes and Sessions are held in this building, which by a subterranean passage and ascending shaft, communicates with the castle above. There are two courts, and other convenient rooms. In the Grand Jury Chamber is a full-length portrait of one of Norfolk’s most celebrated worthies—the late Thomas William Coke, Esq., Earl of Leicester; and also one of Lord Wodehouse. Upon the spacious plain, fronting the Shirehall, is held the Annual (Tombland) Fair, which commences on Maunday Thursday, and terminates upon Easter Tuesday. The newly-erected building to the north-west of the Shirehall, is the County Police Station.

The Guildhall is an ancient building, situated at the north-west end of the Market-place, and is used for an assize and sessions court, for a police station, and for the meetings of the Town Council, and various other purposes. The building is an erection of black flint, the cornices, window frames, and battlements being of freestone. Some of the original windows, with flowered points to the cusps, are still remaining; but the greater part are modern, as are also the additions upon the south, where formerly was a chapel dedicated to St. Barbara, in which the prisoners assembled for divine worship; upon the site of this is a porch, ornamented with a gilt figure of Justice. Adjoining the east side is the Police Office. In the front of the building, towards the Market-place, are square panels, with remains of shields and supporters of the time of Henry VIII. The interior is chiefly modern, with the exception of the room called the Mayor’s Council Chamber, which retains much of the furniture of the time of king Henry VIII. It is situated at the east end upon the second floor, and is adorned with half-length portraits of many of the ancient civic notables and benefactors of the city, amongst which will be found Lord Chief Justice Coke, Archbishop Parker, and many others; the full-length portrait on the left side of the entrance is Sir Benjamin Wrench; that on the right is Thomas Emerson, Esq. In the windows is painted glass of various periods. The greatest object of attraction in this room is a glass case, containing the sword of the Spanish Admiral Don Xavier Winthuysen, who died of his wounds at the battle of Cape St. Vincent, February 14th, 1797. It was presented to the corporation of the city by Lord Nelson. Within the case is the letter which accompanied the presentation, and which is in the hand-writing of the great naval chieftain. Opposite this room is the old Common Council Chamber, in which the mayor and magistrates hold a petty sessions daily. It contains fine full-length portraits of Elisha de Hague, Town Clerk, 1825, and other civic worthies.

The Court in which the Assizes are held is upon the ground floor toward the west; and there are several smaller apartments in the building devoted to municipal purposes, in some of which are the regalia of the corporation, including the snap or dragon, formerly carried before the mayor on his election; the gold chains worn by the mayor and sheriffs; the sword of state, presented by St. George’s Company in 1705: a curious mace of silver gilt, with beautiful crystal, presented by Queen Elizabeth; two maces of silver gilt, presented by the Duke of Norfolk and Sir Robert Walpole in 1670 and 1734, with other civic paraphernalia.

St. Andrew’s Hall is a very noble structure, and is in the pointed style of architecture. Its length is 124 feet, and there are two aisles 70 feet broad. The roof is supported by twelve pillars, and there are fourteen windows on each side in the upper tier, and six in the lower, two in the east, and three in the west end, which were formerly decorated with stained glass. Originally there was a handsome steeple in the centre, which fell down in 1812. The Hall is principally used for the festivals, concerts, public meetings, and various other purposes.

The Public Library is opposite the Guildhall. It is a handsome edifice, with Doric portico, and contains about 30,000 volumes, including a valuable collection of books, called the City Library. The library is open from ten in the morning till nine in the evening, except from the first of May till the end of August, when it closes at eight, p.m. There is a reading-room attached for the convenience of readers.

The Corn Exchange is situated in Exchange Street, which commences at the north end of the Gentlemen’s Walk. It is a large structure erected in 1828, at a cost of £6000. It is about 120 feet long, 90 feet broad, and 27 feet high, and is supported by two rows of pillars. The building is principally lighted from the roof. At the east end are portraits of John Culley, Esq., the originator of the building, and Thomas William Coke, of Holkham, afterwards Earl of Leicester, justly regarded as the father of Norfolk agriculture.

The Chamber of Commerce is situated at a short distance from the Corn Exchange. It is a handsome building, ornamented in front by Corinthian columns and pilasters, surmounted by an entablature. It contains a well-supplied Reading-room, which is open to strangers gratuitously.

The Post Office is situated in Post-Office Street, which is approached from the Market-Place, by Exchange Street. It is a convenient though not an attractive-looking building. There are two London deliveries daily.

The Norfolk and Norwich Museum is in St. Andrew’s Broad Street. It is a handsome building, with commanding exterior, erected in 1839. Its contents are varied, extensive, and complete. The birds especially are very numerous, a large portion of them being foreign. The mammalia include many valuable specimens; and one of the largest provincial collections of animals from Australia is to be found within these walls. Amongst the fossils are some rare specimens of animals long since extinct. The shells and minerals are deserving attention, as is also the entomological department. The antiquities exhibit many remarkable articles; the coins and seals are particularly worthy the attention of the curious. There is also a valuable botanical collection, which contains the Herbarium of the eminent botanist, Sir James E. Smith. The Museum is open free every Monday, and on other days visitors are admitted on the production of an order from one of its members.

The Literary Institution. This society occupies several rooms in the same building as the Museum. It contains an excellent and rapidly increasing Library of about 15,000 volumes.

Adjacent to the Museum is the Free Library, a spacious and convenient building, erected in 1856, upon a part of the site of the ancient palace of the Dukes of Norfolk.

The Bazaar is a handsome structure, in St. Andrew’s Broad Street, erected in 1831, by a company of shareholders, and now let for various purposes. One portion of the building is occupied by the Government School of Design, in which instruction is given in drawing, painting, modelling, and designing.

The Assembly Rooms are at the south end of an open plain, in the parish of St. Stephen, and were erected in 1754 upon the site of the College of St. Mary in the Fields. Public meetings are occasionally held here, and the proprietors of the leading exhibitions of the kingdom, during their stay in this city, generally fix their paraphernalia in one or other of the convenient compartments of this spacious building.

The Theatre Royal is situated at a short distance from the Assembly Rooms. It is a well-built though somewhat plain-looking edifice, erected in 1826, adjoining the site of the old theatre, which was built in 1757. The interior is upon the model of Drury Lane, the embellishments are both chaste and handsome, and the arrangements are well suited to public convenience, being upon the same plan as those of the metropolitan theatres. The building is but rarely used for other than dramatic entertainments.

The Bethel Hospital for Lunatics stands in the street of the same name, upon the site of the old City Committee House. The building is well adapted for the purpose for which it was designed. There is a handsome committee room containing several portraits, one of which is that of the worthy foundress, painted in 1724.

The City Gaol is at the end of St. Giles’ Street. It was completed in 1827, from a design by Mr. Philip Barnes, a native of Norwich, at a cost of £30,000. The front elevation is massive, and is supported by rusticated Tuscan columns. In the wings are niches with cross arrows. The building encloses an area of 1a. 2r. 34p., and contains 114 cells. The governor’s house stands in the centre, and commands a view of the entire prison, which is well ventilated, and supplied with water pumped by the tread wheel.

The Norfolk and Norwich Hospital, founded in 1771, for the relief of the sick and maimed poor, is an extensive brick structure, situated without St. Stephen’s Gates. It deservedly ranks as the most useful institution in the county, and is supported by donations, legacies, and voluntary subscriptions, and also by a large proportion of the proceeds of the Norwich Musical Festival. Since its foundation, it has admitted about 45,000 in-door, and 35,000 out-door patients. Three physicians and four surgeons regularly attend gratuitously. The Hospital contains 144 beds for the reception of patients.

St. Giles’ Hospital, commonly called the Old Men’s Hospital, is situated in the parish of St. Helen. It was founded as early as 1249, by Bishop Walter de Suffield, for maintaining four chaplains to pray for his soul; and also to be an asylum for the aged, decrepid and infirm clergy of the diocese of Norwich, and to support 13 old people, who were to have their lodging, and one meal a day for life. It subsequently received considerable augmentations, and can now accommodate 200 persons.

The Cavalry Barracks are situated in Barrack Street, in the Hamlet of Pockthorpe, on the site of the Old Manor House of that hamlet. They were erected by the Government in 1791, at an expense of £20,000. The buildings are of brick, and form three sides, the centre being for the accommodation of the officers; upon the upper part of this are the national arms sculptured in stone, and surrounded by military trophies. The wings are appropriated to the reception of the soldiers, and are capable of containing 320 men and 266 horses. The high wall which surrounds the entire barracks (including the spacious parade ground) encloses an extent of about ten acres.

The Dungeon Tower is opposite the Cavalry Barracks, upon land called the Hospital Meadows. It is a large round tower of brick, originally surmounted by a battlement.

The Institution for the Indigent Blind is situated in Magdalen Street. The establishment is devoted to two objects—a hospital for the aged blind, and a school for the instruction of blind children, who are taught the manufacture of baskets, mats, and other articles, by which they may obtain a livelihood. These may be purchased in a shop adjoining the institution.

Doughty’s Hospital, in Calvert Street, was founded in 1687, by William Doughty, who bequeathed £6000 for building and endowing it, for 24 poor men and 8 poor women, of the age of 60. Since its foundation, the hospital has been augmented by several benefactions. It is a square building of almshouses, with a garden in the centre. Each inmate has a tenement of one room for his or her own use, and there is one of two rooms, the residence of the master. There is now accommodation for 28 men and 16 women, who each receive 5s. 6d. per week, and the master 11s. per week. Each has also a supply of coals, and a suit of purple clothing annually, with other advantages.

The Cathedral is one of the chief ornaments of the city, and is a very fine edifice, principally in the Norman style of architecture. It has a nave and choir, with aisles, transept, several small chapels, chapterhouse, and cloisters. These, with the Bishop’s Palace and the Deanery, constitute a great mass of ecclesiastical buildings. The Cathedral is 407 feet long, and the breadth across the transept 178 feet, and across the nave and aisles 72 feet. The cloisters form a square of 174 feet, inner dimensions. The large west window is composed of elegant perpendicular tracery, and contains some elegant stained glass, inserted as a memorial of the late Bishop Stanley. On the south side of the nave, between the sixth and seventh pillars, is the tomb of Chancellor Spenser, upon which, in accordance with the leases, the dean and chapter formerly demanded the payment of their rents; and between the next pillars stands the tomb of Bishop Nix, a violent persecutor of the Reformers, who erected the roof of the transepts. He suffered a long imprisonment for aiding the cause of the pope against Henry VIII. The space which this tomb occupies, as well as that between the two next pillars to the west, was formerly enclosed as a chapel, the roof of which is remaining, displaying obtuse arches inserted between the Norman piers; the vaulting, which is rich, is considered a good specimen of the latest florid style. On the west side of the ninth pier, on the same side, is the tomb of Bishop Parkhurst, the eminent lexicographer, a very excellent prelate, and a great promoter of the reformed religion. In the ninth arch of the south wall is a monument to Dean Gardiner. Opposite, on the east side of the ninth pier, is the tomb of Sir James Hobart, attorney-general to Henry VII. A chapel was formerly enclosed here, which belonged to the Hobart family. In the centre of the nave will be observed a chaste marble slab, which covers the remains of the late highly-esteemed Bishop Stanley. The Bishop’s Palace is partly Norman. It has a grand hall and a large chapel. The Deanery and Prebendal Houses are the remains of the Priory. Among the cathedral appurtenances are three ancient gates of remarkable structure—the Erpingham gate, St. Ethelbert’s gate, and St. Martin’s Palace gate. The Cathedral precincts form a peculiar jurisdiction of the Dean and Chapter, who appoint a coroner and ecclesiastical judges and officers. The Bishop has the remarkable privilege of being the only abbot in England, being Bishop of Norwich and Abbot of St. Bennet’s-at-Holm.

The Free Grammar School is situated near the western door of the Cathedral, and was originally a chapel dedicated to St. John. It was erected about 1315, by Bishop Salmon, lord chancellor, who endowed it with four priests, one of whom was to sing mass for his soul, those of his parents, and of all his predecessors and successors. The portico, which is singular in construction, was built by Bishop Lyhart in 1463. The buttresses at each end of the south side are especially worthy notice; they are ornamented with rich columns representing the trunks of trees, from the tops of which spring imitations of branches. In this grammar school, in addition to many eminent scholars, were educated the celebrated Hero of the Nile and Trafalgar, Lord Viscount Nelson, and Sir James Brooke, the Rajah of Sarrawak. The celebrated Dr. Valpy was once head master.

PARISH CHURCHES.

‘All Saints’, situated at the east end of Westlegate Street, is a small structure, with a square tower, and three bells. The font is very ancient, and curiously carved with figures of the Twelve Apostles, St. Michael and the Dragon, &c. The living is a rectory, in the gift of Mrs. Sculthorpe. Rev. Thomas Gurney, M.A., is the rector.

St. Andrew’s “Broad Street,” to which it gives name, is esteemed the finest parochial church in the city, excepting that of St. Peter’s Mancroft. The tower, which has ten bells and a clock, was rebuilt in 1478, and the nave and chancel in 1506. The interior is neatly pewed, contains a good organ erected in 1808, and several handsome monuments. At the end of the north aisle is a sumptuous monument, with recumbent effigies of Sir John Suckling and his lady. To the altar belongs a handsome and costly set of plate, of which two noble flagons, weighing nearly 60 ounces each, were given by L. Goodwin, Esq., in 1704. The church of St. Christopher, which stood in this vicinity, was burnt down in the reign of Henry VIII., and its parish united with St. Andrew’s. The parishioners are the patrons. Rev. J. Brown is the incumbent.

St. Augustine’s, situated in St. Augustine’s Street, is an unpresuming edifice with a square tower, containing a clock and three bells. The tower and porch were partly rebuilt of red brick in 1726. The living is a rectory in the gift of the dean and chapter. Rev. M. J. Rackham is the incumbent.

St. Benedict’s, Upper Westwick Street, is a small structure, with a tower, round at the base and octangular above. The patronage is in the gift of the parishioners. Rev. W. Goodwin, incumbent.

St. Clement’s, Colegate Street, is one of the most ancient churches in the city. The venerable structure consists of a nave and chancel, and has a square tower, in which are three bells. It was thoroughly repaired in 1845, at a cost of £430. In the churchyard is the “Leper’s Tomb,” which, tradition says, was raised over the remains of a leper, who, being permitted burial here, bequeathed his lands to the church: but Blomfield discredits this legend, and conjectures that the leper died in the lazar house, without St. Augustine’s gate, which entitled him to burial here, that building being in one of the detached parts of this parish. The living is a rectory in the gift of Caius College, Cambridge. Rev. R. Rigg is the rector.

St. Edmund’s, in Fishgate Street, a small structure, founded about the time of William the Conqueror, has a tower and one bell. Among the relics formerly preserved here, was a piece of the shirt of St. Edward the King and Martyr, kept in a box of crystal, and visited with great reverence. The living is a rectory in the gift of the Rev. C. Brereton. The Rev. J. Pearson is the rector.

St. Ethelred’s, in King Street, is a small fabric, with a short tower and one bell. In the burial ground was formerly an anchorage, which continued till after the Reformation. Rev. J. Deacon is the incumbent.

St. George’s Colegate, a large handsome gothic structure, rebuilt at different periods, has a lofty tower, in which is a clock and three bells. The interior is neatly fitted up, and there is a good organ. In the chancel is a fine altar tomb to Robert Iannis, a great benefactor to this church and the city; and near it a beautiful mural monument to John Herring, Esq. The window over the communion table is beautifully adorned with stained glass. The churches of St. Margaret at Colegate and St. Olave, in Cherry Lane, were taken down, and their cures consolidated with St. George’s; the former in 1349, and the latter in 1546. The dean and chapter are patrons. Rev. A. W. Durdin, incumbent.

St. George’s Tombland consists of a nave, chancel, and side aisles, has a handsome square tower, which contains five bells, and was erected by the parishioners in 1445. In the interior are several spacious galleries, and many monumental inscriptions. Rev. K. Trimmer is the incumbent.

St. Giles’ was founded in the reign of William the Conqueror, by Elwyn the priest, who gave it to the monks of Norwich, and the patronage is consequently vested in the dean and chapter. It was wholly rebuilt in the reign of Richard II., and is now one of the handsomest churches in the city. The tower (120 feet high) contains a clock and eight bells, and is surrounded by a cupola and battlement. The chancel has been demolished since the year 1581, when the dean and chapter, to quit themselves of the expense of repairing it, gave all the materials to the parish, for “a stock to be put out for the encouragement of poor trades.” There are many curious old brasses, and several neat mural monuments. Rev. R. Sedgwick is the incumbent.

St. Gregory’s, Pottergate Street, is a lofty gothic structure, consisting of nave, side aisles, and chancel, the latter built in 1395; since which, the whole pile has received many reparations. In the tower are a clock and six bells; the font is very large, having an octagonal top, and on its eight sides the four evangelists, and figures emblematic of the four quarters of the globe. In the nave is a fine brass reading-desk, in the shape of an eagle with expanded wings. Among the monuments is one to Sir Francis Bacon, a Judge of the Court of King’s Bench, in the time of Charles II. Here are also some ancient brass inscriptions. Rev. W. R. Sharpe is the incumbent.

St. Helen’s, Bishopgate Street, belonged to the monks who demolished it, and consolidated the cure with the church of St. Giles’ Hospital, now called the Great Hospital. The whole of this hospital church, which serves also as the parish church of St. Helen, and is partly converted into lodgings for the almspeople, is still standing. It has a square tower at the south-west corner, with one bell; the choir is turned into lodgings for the almswomen, and part of the nave and aisles is divided into apartments for the men. The church is neatly fitted up with open seats, and opposite the altar stands a modern seat of gothic carved work. Rev. W. F. Patteson is the incumbent.

St. James’, Cowgate, includes within its parish the hamlet of Pockthorpe, and part of Mousehold Heath. It is a small structure, with a tower, rebuilt in 1743, and contains three bells. It was re-pewed in 1842. This was a well-endowed rectory till 1201, when it was appropriated to the cathedral priory, and is now a peculiar of the dean and chapter.

St. John’s Maddermarket is an ancient but handsome church, consisting of nave, side aisles, and a fine tower, in which are six bells. It is dedicated to the Holy Trinity and St. John the Baptist, and was founded before the survey made in Edward the Confessor’s time. The lead was removed, and the roof covered with slate in 1835. It contains many ancient sepulchral inscriptions, with a few brasses and several neat mural tablets. Lady Margaret, Duchess of Norfolk (second wife of the duke, who was beheaded in Elizabeth’s reign), died at the Duke’s Palace, in this parish, in 1563, and was interred with great pomp on the north side of the choir, where a mural monument was raised to her memory in 1791. The living is a rectory in the gift of New College, Oxford. The Rev. J. Perowne is the rector.

St. John’s Sepulchre, a commodious structure, at the south end of Ber Street, dedicated to St. John the Baptist and the Holy Sepulchre, consists of nave, chancel, and transepts, with a lofty tower, in which are five bells and a clock. Rev. Thomas Calvert is the incumbent.

St. John’s Timberhill, an ancient pile, dedicated to St. John the Baptist, and situated at the north end of Ber Street, was founded soon after the priory, to which it was appropriated.

The Rev. S. Titlow is the incumbent.

St. Julian’s, situated in King Street, a small ancient fabric, with a round tower; was founded before the conquest. On the south side may be seen the ancient entrance, in the Saxon style, but now disused. In the churchyard was an anchorage, demolished at the dissolution of religious houses.

St. Lawrence, Upper Westwick Street, is a handsome gothic fabric, with a fine tower, 112 feet high, containing a clock and six bells. The windows are large and beautifully foliated, and were formerly decorated with stained glass, all of which was destroyed by the Puritans in 1643. Over an arched door, on the western side, are two ancient carvings, one of which represents the cruel martyrdom of St. Lawrence. The original church was founded in the Confessor’s reign, on the site of a quay for landing fish, but was taken down in 1460, and the present one completed about twelve years after. Rev. P. U. Browne is the incumbent.

St. Margaret’s, Westwick Street, consists of nave, chancel, and side aisle, and has a square tower, in which were five bells till 1830, when four of them were sold to assist in defraying the expense of covering the structure with blue slate. The living is a rectory in the gift of the Bishop of Norwich. The Rev. J. W. Cobb is the rector.

St. Martin’s at Oak, in Oak Street, consists of nave, chancel, south aisle, and a square tower, with three bells. It derived the latter part of its name from a large oak, formerly standing in the churchyard, with the image of St. Mary in it. This was much visited in superstitious times, and several legacies were given towards repairing and painting it. The oak now standing on the site was planted about 50 years ago. An alabaster tomb, with effigies, remember Jeremiah Ravens and his wife. Rev. C. J. Blake is the incumbent.

St. Martin’s at Palace, situated opposite the entrance to the palace, is a venerable structure, consisting of nave, chancel, and side aisles, with a tower and five bells. In early times a boys’ singing school was kept here; and in 1500 John Blomfield gave a robe of worsted linen, lined with blue silk, for the boy bishop. Rev. A. Braddell, incumbent.

St. Mary’s, Southgate Street, consists of nave, transepts, and chancel, with an ancient round tower, with six bells. The body of the church was built in 1477. It contains six antique stalls, and several neat monuments. Rev. C. Morse, incumbent. St. Mary’s in the Marsh. The Rev. J. C. Matchett, incumbent.

St. Michael’s, Coslany Street, usually called St. Miles’, is a commodious and handsome structure, with a lofty embattled tower, containing a clock and eight musical bells. The interior of the church is handsomely decorated, and two of the windows contain some ancient painted glass, but the heads of the figures were taken off to gratify the Puritans in the reign of Cromwell. The altar-piece represents the ascension, and the four evangelists; and the floor in front is paved with black and white marble, brought from the domestic chapel of the Earl of Yarmouth, at Oxnead. On the south side is a chapel of beautiful workmanship, erected of flints and freestone, and considered one of the finest specimens of flint-work in the county. The church contains a very old font, several mural monuments, and some ancient brasses. The living is a rectory in the gift of Caius College, Cambridge. Rev. R. Rigg is the rector.

St. Michael’s at Plea, situated on the north side of Queen Street, is so named from the Archdeacon of Norwich holding in it his Pleas or Courts. It is built in the form of a cross, and has a square embattled tower, with two bells. There are eight ancient paintings near the pulpit, well worthy of inspection. The living is a rectory in the gift of Sir T. B. Leonard and J. Morse, Esq. Rev. Charles Morse is the rector.

St. Michael at Thorn, in ancient deeds, called St. Michael’s super Montem, has still a large thorn tree growing in the graveyard. It is a small structure, with a tower, built in 1436, in which are three bells. Rev. C. T. Rust is the incumbent.

St. Paul’s, in St. Paul’s Street, is an ancient fabric, with a small tower, the upper part of which was octangular, but was rebuilt in 1819 of white brick, with a stone coping. It contains a handsome screen and sounding board, and was renewed in 1841. The living is a rectory in the gift of the dean and chapter. Rev. B. Cook is the rector.

St. Peter Hungate, on Elm Hill, one of the oldest churches in the city; was anciently called Hungate, or Houndsgate, from the hounds formerly kept there for the use of the bishop. The old church was demolished in 1458, when the present one was commenced and finished in 1460. It is a cruciform structure, of black flint, with a square tower and two bells. Over the communion table is a handsome window of ancient stained glass. Among the plate belonging to the altar is a curious old cup and cover. The living is a rectory in the gift of the lord chancellor. Rev. S. Titlow is the rector.

St. Peter’s Mancroft stands in an elevated situation, near the upper side of the Market-place, and is a handsome cruciform structure of freestone, begun in 1430, and finished in 1455. It stands on the site of a former structure, and is considered the finest parish church in the city, measuring 212 feet in length and 70 feet in breadth, having a noble tower 98 feet high, containing an excellent peal of twelve bells, with a clock and chimes. The bells were exchanged for the old peal of ten in 1775, at the cost of more than £800, raised by public subscription. The interior has an elegant appearance; the clustered pillars supporting the roof, with the arches surmounting them, are lofty and slender, and the windows are large and handsome. The organ, a fine-toned instrument, was erected in 1707. The decorations of the altar are elegant, and the plate massive, especially a superb standing cup and cover. The altar piece represents the delivery of Peter from Prison, and the east window is decorated with stained glass. In the vestry are several ancient books, among which is a beautiful manuscript bible, written on vellum, in 1340, and a more ancient manuscript of the Epistles of St. Paul, with a comment finely illuminated. Here are several fine old paintings, and a piece of tapestry, dated 1574. Over the door hangs an old carving, in alabaster, of nine female saints, among which is St. Margaret holding down a dragon. The capacious old font is surmounted with a lofty covering of costly tabernacle work, and near the north door are two carved stalls. Rev. C. Turner, incumbent.

St. Peter per Mountergate, in King Street; so called from a gate anciently placed near the churchyard; was erected in 1486, and has a fine square, embattled tower, with a clock and five bells. In the chancel are 24 stalls, which belonged to a college of secular priests, that stood at the north-east corner of the churchyard. A tomb, dated 1623, on the south side of the altar, with recumbent effigies, remembers R. Berney, Esq., and his wife. In the nave is interred Thomas Codd, who was mayor in Kett’s Rebellion, and was a great benefactor to the city. The heads of his will are read annually on the Sunday before St. Thomas’ Day. Rev. G.

Pettus, the first of the family who was knighted. The church is of great antiquity, and was held by the bishops before the removal of the see to Norwich. A new gallery was erected in 1835, and the body was re-pewed in 1838. Rev. C. Holloway, rector.

St. Stephen’s, situated in Rampant Horse Street, is a commodious gothic structure, consisting of nave, chancel, side aisles, and two side chapels, with a square tower at the west end. The nave is divided from the aisles by fluted columns, with pointed arches, and the east window is richly beautified with stained glass. It is neatly pewed, and the altar is remarkably handsome.

The living is a rectory in the gift of the dean and chapter. Rev. S. O. Attlay is the rector.

St. Swithin, Westwick Street, is a neat structure, with a square tower and three bells. During the cleansing of the church in 1834, an ancient portrait of Edward the Confessor was found nailed under one of the seats, where it is supposed to have been placed for security during the civil wars. The altar-piece is a painting of Moses and Aaron. On the font are carved emblems of the Trinity, Eucharist, and the Passion, with the arms of East Anglia. Here are also three stalls.

DISSENTING CHAPELS.

The leading denominations of Dissenters have commodious places of worship, some of which, on the score of antiquity, or of modern architectural merit, are not undeserving attention.

The Old Meeting House, in St. Clement’s, was erected in 1693, and belongs to the Independents. Its first pastor, Bridge, seceded from the Establishment in the reign of James II., and sat in the Westminster Assembly of Divines. It is a large building of red brick, fronted with four Corinthian pilasters. It will afford accommodation for about 700 persons. There are spacious School-rooms connected with this building, in which a large number of children are educated upon the British system.

Prince’s Street Chapel (Independent) was built in 1819. It is a building of white brick, with boldly-displayed cornice and pediment, and a Grecian Doric portico of four columns. It will accommodate upwards of 800 persons.

The Tabernacle (Countess of Huntingdon’s), a plain but commodious structure, is situated in the parish of St. Martin’s Palace, and will accommodate 1000 persons. The celebrated George Whitfield preached in this building.

St. Mary’s Chapel (Baptist) was originally erected in 1744, but was rebuilt in its present handsome style in 1811, and considerably enlarged in 1838. It will now seat 900 persons. The Rev. J. Kinghorn, a celebrated Hebrew scholar, was one of its ministers.

St. Clement’s Chapel (Baptist) is also a large building. It was erected in 1814, and contains about 900 sittings. There is a spacious School-room adjacent to this chapel. The celebrated Mark Wilks was once the pastor.

Ebenezer Chapel (Baptist) Surrey Road, was erected in 1854; it is a spacious building, and although without galleries, is capable of accommodating a large congregation.

Calvert Street Chapel belongs to what are called the Wesleyan Reformers, and is the largest Wesleyan Meeting-house in the city. It was opened in 1811. It is a red-brick edifice, containing upwards of 1000 sittings.

St. Peter’s Chapel, near the Theatre Plain, is a neat, commodious building, held by the original Wesleyan Conference. It contains 900 sittings.

The Unitarian Chapel, situated in St. George’s Colegate, is unquestionably the most handsome meeting-house in the city. It is known as the Octagon Chapel, which will indicate the plan upon which it is constructed. It is surmounted by a dome, supported by eight Corinthian pillars, in excellent imitation of marble. There is a portico to the south front.

The Society of Friends have two meeting-houses in Norwich; one of which is in the Upper Goat Lane. It is a fine white-brick structure, with Doric portico, and lighted by a dome lantern. It was built in 1826. About 700 persons can be accommodated in this building. Adjacent to it are several convenient rooms for committee and other meetings. The other is the Gildencroft Meeting House, St. Augustine’s, an ancient-looking edifice, erected in 1680. There is a spacious burial-ground attached, in which are deposited the remains of Joseph John Gurney and other eminent Friends. It is worth remarking that the building is supported by two lofty oak pillars, cut out of single trees.

The French Church is an ancient building in Queen Street, occupied by the Swedenborgians, (which was formerly dedicated to St. Mary the Less.) After the parish was united to others, the building was used as a cloth exchange, and subsequently was granted to the French Protestants. It has a square tower, nave, and chancel.

The Roman Catholics have two chapels; one called The Chapel of the Apostles, is situated in Willow Lane, and is a handsome building of white brick, in the Corinthian and Ionic styles. The interior presents a truly gorgeous appearance. The other is called St. John’s Maddermarket Chapel. It stands near to the church of that name, and is a large building, erected in 1794. There is a dwelling for the priest adjoining.

The Jews have a handsome Synagogue in St. Faith’s Lane. They were formerly very numerous in this city.

CEMETERIES. There are two Cemeteries in Norwich. The New Cemetery, situated upon the Earlham road, is corporate property, and was opened in 1856. It contains 35 acres. The Rosary Burial Ground is pleasantly situated at Thorpe, and was registered in 1821. It originally contained 5 acres, but has recently been considerably enlarged.
