Photographic Survey of Dereham by John Fielding
​- 23rd March 2015

These photographs and video (© John Fielding) were part of the exhibition 'Dereham Then and Now - Aerial Photographs' on display in the museum in 2015. John Fielding very kindly volunteered to take these photographs to duplicate the views taken of the town by Aerofilms Ltd in the 1920s, 30s and 40s. More of John's aerial photographs can be seen at www.flickr.com/photos/john_fielding/  
All the old photographs of Dereham taken by Aerofilms can be seen and downloaded at https://britainfromabove.org.uk/groups/dereham-history
