About Fencing in Norwich
Norwich in Norfolk grew rapidly after the Norman Conquest, with William the Conqueror ordering a castle built in 1067 that required demolishing dozens of Saxon homes to make way for its earthworks, while the cathedral nearby was built using Caen limestone brought in by canal from the River Wensum. The cathedral's spire, at 96 metres, is the second tallest in England after Salisbury. Our directory lists fencing suppliers and installers covering the NR1 postcode area.
