The Bridewell, once a prison for women and beggars (a 'Bridewell'), currently houses a wonderful collection of historic objects and machinery revelaing how Norwich people earned their living. These themes will be enhanced in the new displays, which will also focus more on the city's people and their everyday lives. Local people have been consulted on plans for the Bridewell, through a programme of focus groups. Students from Hellesdon High School have also been involved in an innovative consultation project, working with architecture students from the University of Sheffield to express their ideas for the museum in 3D models.
