John FitzGerald's photos with the keyword: tombland

Tombland is an Old Norse word meaning open space. It was the marketplace until the Normans moved the market to its current spot in the late eleventh century. The memorial is to Edith Cavell, and is the work of S. C. Clark. It stands outside the wall along the west side of the cathedral close. If you're ever in Norwich, by the way, Tombland is pronounced as two equally stressed syllables.
