Plunkett's Pictures of Norwich and Norfolk offers a unique view of our area and celebrates the passion and work of a man dedicated to capturing Norwich and Norfolk on film.
Between the 1930's and his death in 2006, George Plunkett took thousands of photographs of Norwich and Norfolk,producing a fascinating record of the many changes that occurred and capturing places which have since disappeared. With a biographical essay celebrating George's life and love of photography, this commemorative collection of nearly 200 of his very best photographs from the 1930's to the 1960's includes pictures of Norwich celebrating the Silver Jubilee in 1935 and the Coronation in 1937, the Market Place reconstruction and building of the City Hall, preparations for the War, as well as the St Stephen's Street development and evidence of how the city looked before the Inner Link Road. His photography of Norfolk is also recognised, with a selection of sights from around the county which no longer exist. More info
