A group of us walked the line of the city wall of Norwich today. Some of the sections are well preserved, and the line is marked out along pavements and even in the middle of one of the roundabouts. We came across a number of metal plaques that noted ‘This forms part of the old city wall built during the 13th-14th centuries’.
One of the suggestions is that they were placed on the wall by the Office of Works either in the early part of the 20th century or in the 1930s.
