Norwijh is built on an eminence, with the River Wensum flowing ?a hs feet, and spreads over a large site, with openings planted with trees, and towers of churches surmounting each block of building, thus recalling old Fuller's description : — " Norwich (as you please) either a city in an orchard, or an orchard in a city. " It is not mentioned in history before the time of the earlier Danish invasions. It appears to have risen gradually from the decay of Caistor or Castor St. Edmunds, now a smal
...l village, about three miles south of Norwich, but anciently a British, and subsequently a Roman town under the name of Fenta Icenorum, An old distich records that " Castor was a city when Norwich was none, And Norwich was built of Castor stone. " During the existence of the separate kingdom of the East Angles, their kings had erected upon what was then a promontory on the shore of the estuary of the sea, and is now the Castle Hill, a royal fortress. The town grew around the Castle, and, in the time of Edward the Confessor, had 1320 burgesses and twenty-five parish churches; and it may be questioned if at this time it was exceeded in wealth and population by any place in England except London, and perhaps York.
