INTRODUCTION. 
THE frequent demand for a Guide Book to the 
Norwich Castle Museum has induced the enterprising 
firm of Jarrold and Sons to add yet one more to the 
useful series of such works which has been issued by 
them, and the Committee of the Museum, having 
given their consent and offered every facility for its 
production, the result will be found in the following 
pages, which it is hoped may be useful to those who 
visit the collections. 
The removal into the spacious galleries in the 
Castle was of necessity so speedily effected, that the 
complete re-arrangement of the various collections on 
the most modern systems could not, at the time, be 
carried out, and one of the chief difficulties which 
the writer had to contend with was the unfinished 
condition in which some of the sections at present 
are ; to remedy this will necessarily be a work of time, 
and it is satisfactory to know that the task is gradually 
but surely approaching completion. In the Guide 
this re-arrangement has occasionally been anticipated, 
and the places of some of the objects named may 
not just at present quite coincide with those here 
assigned to them; but it is hoped that no serious 
inconvenience in that respect will be experienced. 
It only remains for the writer to thank those friends 
who have been so kind as to render him assistance in
