More about this scene

This is one of several villages in west Norfolk where the main building material is local carstone, rather than the flint used throughout the rest of the county: the buildings to the left of the photograph are good examples. Narborough straddles the river Nar and has two watermills.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

My grandfather was Charles William Nelson and he with his wife ran the mill as a miller from1922-1937, they also had 5 children, one boy and four girls (one of them, Eva, was my mother). I do have one picture of my grandmother; or step-grandmother as I believe my grandmother died in 1921. This was taken outside at the front of the mill.
