Some photos of yesterday’s farewell shoot at Anglia Square, Sovereign House and Gildengate. I’ve been taking photos of it for 25 years, and had a relationship with it more or less from the age of two. We moved to Norwich in 1967 because of it.

The area to the side of Gildengate was open, there’s a mini flyover to the flyover. The graffiti is the work of the artists who jnhabited Gildengate since its closure as part of HMSO.
One of the service entrances to the huge Gildengate building. This area is usually blocked off. I just liked the arrangement of it all. And what is photography it’s not recording the layers, angles and complexities you decode in what you see.
Peter’s. It was the local butcher’s made famous when photographed by Jim Mortram, although then it was called John’s, he was Peter’s dad I think. Peter retired recently, the last of a line in the trade.
The tower peering over the edge of the roof if the former computer unit which housed the HMSO servers. More recently this has been QD stores. The tower houses the lift motors, now dead, it’s mostly full of mobile phone masts now.
