BER STREET, NORWICH

Picture from Norfolk County Council
Joshua Broughton, my great-grandfather Raymond's elder brother, was a coach smith in Wrights Yard, off Ber Street, in Norwich. Many yards or "lokes" run off Ber Street at right-angles, and though many of these have been modernised or knocked down, Ber Street itself retains much of the ambience of 1900 - though petrol fumes have replaced the sheep, horse and cattle droppings.
