Research Visits

We welcome all kinds of researchers at the Royal Norfolk Regimental Museum. The Museum is not a record office and does not hold personal records or history of each soldier who served in the Regiment. However, there is an extensive collection of photographs, regimental magazines (now card indexed), regimental histories and First World War battalion war diaries (card indexed) and documents, which can sometimes yield information about individuals. There is also an important collection of photographs. All items are accessible by appointment.  

If you cannot come to the museum we will be happy to check our indexes for you. Please write enclosing a stamped addressed envelope or email. Letters are preferred as photocopied information is often provided. Most of this work is carried out by volunteers and we do not charge for this service, though a small charge is made for photocopying and donations are always welcome.

We hold a varied collection of material that illustrates the history of our regiment.
