Lemuel
Broughton was the younger brother of great-grandfather Raymond
Broughton. When the Broughton family moved from Spixworth to
Norwich in the 1850s, Lemuel set up as a basket-maker in Thorn
Lane, where he lived all his life, first at number 88 and then
at number 45. Today's Thorn Lane is a modern, wide thoroughfare
and the home of the Eastern Daily Press. All the old houses
pictured in the photograph have been swept away either by the
Lutwaffe or by the city planners. |
