SCOLE STORES
My parents Bernard (better known as Syd) and Margret (Peggy) Blunsom owned Scole stores in the main street of Scole. I rember the house well across the road was pretty"s garage. Old Mrs Johnsons cottage was sandwiched between us and the Scole Inn. On the other side was an antique shop where every mothers day I would go with the five shillings my dad had given me and get my mum a mothers day gift.

High House, Scole
I have very fond memories of Scole because I spent an awful lot of my childhood and adult years visiting and staying with my Great Uncle & Aunt Tom & Florrie Clark who lived in High House. They initially had an antique shop at the front of the house, stables at the back and two orchards one at the side of the house and another down a lane nearby. My sisters and myself loved picking the apples from the trees. Of course we didn't eat any before my aunt would make lovely fresh pies with them, well maybe we we did just the odd one. The house was full of antiques and a lovely open grate fireplace that had logs burnt ...read more here

Red House Inn, Cantley
Heresay says my boat was built in the 1880s for the then-owner of the Red House at Cantley, and was called "Lama" or possibly "Llama". Does anyone have any information on owners/landlords, or boating pictures of that period?
Thanks

Extracts From Redenhall & Norfolk books
On the road leading to the priory gateway, this fine 14th-century, jettied, timber-frame building may have been built for visitors to the abbey. The period petrol pumps have now gone.
An extract from from"Norwich Photographic Memories".
The spacious market-place was established by 1130, but the present timber-framed ‘cross’ building dates from 1617. It replaced the original after yet another Norfolk fire gutted the town centre.

This was the former water mill. Smartened up, with its brickwork painted, the mill is now a house. It was powered by the head waters of the River Ant, canalised in 1826 as the North Walsham and Dilham Canal.
An extract from from"Norwich Photographic Memories".
South of the market-place, the old grammar school is centred around a wide, seven-bay red-brick building of 1765. It was founded before 1600; one of Norfolk’s most celebrated sons, Horatio Nelson, was a pupil in the new building.
An extract from from"Norwich Photographic Memories".
The fine, large town church is situated up an alley at the east end of Market Street and behind the market-place. Only remnants of its medieval tower survive. It collapsed in 1724, and was never rebuilt.
