* After the great upheaval of WWI, Kelly's managed a very frequent publishing schedule.
Another long gap, equally to be expected, occurred between 1941 and 1947.
Very sadly, Kelly's discontinued their Norwich directories after 1975.
The Norfolk versions ceased even earlier (1937) i.e. did not resume after WWII.
Important Note :
Nearly all the 'Norwich' Directories are confined to
the legal boundaries of the former County Borough.
From the mid-1920's onwards this becomes a greater
and greater misfortune, as the expansion of dwellings
and pubs into the "suburbs" often goes un-recorded.
