Many thanks to Norfolk and Norwich Millennium Library, UK, for kindly allowing their copy to be used for this transcription "The Norwich Directory" by Thomas Peck is a reference work written in the early 19th century. This publication serves as a comprehensive directory of the inhabitants of Norwich, providing an alphabetical list of residents alongside their addresses, professions, and trades. Additionally, it includes a concise history of Norwich and highlights public improvements intended to enhance the city's infrastructure and livability. At the start of the directory, Peck discusses the necessity of such a publication in a growing city like Norwich, where finding residents' addresses can be difficult. He outlines the structure of the directory and introduces various sections, including lists of key public buildings, services, and recent civic improvements. The introduction also highlights a significant recent collaboration among local dignitaries aimed at applying for legislative support to improve city services like paving and lighting, reflecting a spirit of public enhancement and civic pride. The early pages set the stage for the detailed listings and features that follow in the directory, portraying Norwich as a city in a phase of growth and modernization.
