Norwich, is a city in East Anglia, in Eastern England. It is the regional administrative centre and county city of Norfolk. During the 11th century Norwich became the second largest city in England, after London, and one of the most important places in the kingdom.

Ninety-eight Saxon homes were demolished to make way for the castle. The original structure was a timber motte and bailey type housing standing on a natural rise in the land augmented by an artificial mound.

Bishop Walter de Suffield founded St. Giles's Hospital, as the Great Hospital was originally known, in 1249. The hospital has provided accommodation and sustenance for people for almost eight centuries.
