The following is an interesting article from the excellent Colonel Unthanks Norwich website. It is about Captain Arnold Edward Sandys-Winsch who built five parks throughout Norwich during the 1920s and 1930s. But what parks did he build and in what architectural style? He also planted 20,000 trees throughout Norwich which we all enjoy today and probably take for granted. What manpower was used to build these parks? There is also a 1950s cafe menu included in the article which is also worth a look and is very much different to the menus we see today! Please select the following link to find out more:
