Norwich Survey.
Thomas and Robert Suffield used 94 Upper St Giles Street in partnership with John Barwell for their wine business, and built large cellars under the garden. The earth from these excavations is thought to have been used to construct the path round chapel field. Photographs show the outside of the property and some internal details.
