Here are a few more pictures of Norwich Cathedral and the town, taken by a couple of my friends here. Apparently at one time there were enough churches in Norwich for every week of the year (52!) and enough pubs for every day of the year (365!), according to the Friends of Norwich Historical Society tour guide. All this in a town of 132,000 people. Several of the pubs and a few of the churches have since closed down, but when I said earlier that one could hardly turn around without bumping into some church or another, I wasn't exaggerating.
Also, the two photos at the top show a building that was level when it was built, but after years of re-settling earth is now completely caddywhompus.
