Norwich is a small, historic community, located approximately two miles west of downtown and surrounded to the north by the Roanoke River. The low lying and flat neighborhood is nestled by hillier residential areas on three sides: Hurt Park lies to the north, Raleigh Court lies to the south, and Mountain View lies to the east. It is an essentially residential neighborhood with light industrial infill along its perimeter. The core of the existing historic houses remains intact depicting a strong image of its earlier industrial heritage associated with mills. The rows of historic workers' houses create a pleasing rhythm along the streets. The area is a quiet neighborhood with the well utilized Norwich Park conveniently located along the main corrider of Roanoke Avenue. There is great potential for recreational land use along the currently undeveloped land bordering the river.
