Streets of Norwich – Hindes Yard

Part of my Streets of Norwich project….

Hindes Yard is located off of St. Augustine’s Street, just above where it says ‘free trade tavern’ on the above map from the 1880s.

It’s one of many yards along this street, many of which have survived in some form, although some of them are closed off. The name of the yard likely comes from the early part of the nineteenth century, after the local Hinde family who ran a nearby manufacturing business.

Back in 1939, there were three households in the yard, with six people living across the properties.
