In 'Yarmouth Notes, 1830-1872,' Frederick Danby Palmer presents a collection of observations and anecdotes from the files of the Norwich Mercury, offering a rare glimpse into the social and political landscape of the mid-19th century Norfolk region. Written in a straightforward and informative style, Palmer's work provides valuable insights into the daily lives, customs, and events of the period, making it a valuable resource for historians and enthusiasts of British local history. The book is structured as a series of notes, each offering a snapshot of a particular moment or story, creating a mosaic of life in Yarmouth during this time.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

This is the full colour version of a detailed and intensively researched technical report that literally rewrites the local history of a substantial area of Norfolk, with over 80 original illustrations dealing with elements of past and present vehicular highway law in England and Wales and its specific application to the locality. It examines some of the responsibilities of a highway authority and several of the shortcomings of the Norfolk Highway Authority in particular. Highlighted is a number of the resultant 'lost', obstructed but still legally active ancient routes in, around and through the Halvergate marshes including its immediate environs within south east Norfolk. The report concludes with specific recommendations made in the light of recent changes in the law that are intended to generate public consideration and discussion.
