The Halls are closed for extensive renovations until 2025
You may have noticed the fantastic illustrations on the hoardings around The Halls which are currently undergoing refurbishment with completion scheduled for Spring 2025. They were commissioned by the council from Norwich-based graphic artist Ben Wilson and depict some of the long history of the Grade I listed Scheduled Monument at St Andrew’s Plain, stretching back to its origins in the 14th century.
Ben has also produced a video for our YouTube channel, website and social media use.
