New Norfolk History

New Norfolk Buildings

A work in progress - documenting the history of the buildings in the shopping precinct.

Many thanks to Ruth Binnie and the volunteers at the Derwent Valley Historical Information Centre, as well Damian Bester from the New Norfolk and Derwent Valley News, for sharing their extensive local knowledge and photos.

If you have information or photos to share please send me a message.

New Norfolk People

A who's who of the people who ran the businesses in New Norfolk. In order to protect the privacy of the living, we only feature the people who have passed (unless given permission).
