November 2010. Desk-based Assessment.
Assessment of historical significance of various buildings within or adjacent to large proposed development area to north-east of Norwich.
St Andrew’s Church (Building 13) is a corrugated iron structure likely to represent an example of a 'tin tabernacle'. These buildings were purchased from catalogues and generally date to the later 19th century or early 20th century. There is though nothing marked at this location on any maps of this date, although this may simply reflect the intended temporary nature of the structure. Its present condition is uncertain and further investigation is required to determine its value as a heritage.
