Description
Old Norfolk Post Offices A Picture Postcard Tour by Roger A. Davie is a unique collection of postcards showcasing historic post offices in Norfolk. Using Google Earth, the author embarked on a virtual tour to locate and photograph these buildings, which have since been lost or altered over time. The book features over 120 images of post offices from the early 20th century, accompanied by information gathered from various sources, including Kelly's Directories of Norfolk and census records. The town descriptions are based on renditions of information from the directories, providing a glimpse into travel arrangements and daily life in Norfolk during that era. With over 150 individuals identified in the postcard images, this book offers a fascinating insight into Norfolk's history and the evolution of its postal services.
