Take a look back at 1990s life in Norwich

Norfolk's capital has seen many developments over the years - from a sports village turned to an ice rink and an award winning architectural redevelopment of its bus station - but the heart has remained the same.

We have curated some pictures aimed at evoking memories, as we invite you to take a look back at the final decade of the last millennium of Norwich.

Norwich bus station has been based near Surrey Street since Eastern Counties bought land there in since April of 1934.

The original bus station stood in place throughout the rest of the 20th century.

But by the mid-2000s the old station was crumbling.

In 2005 a brand new "state-of-the-art" bus station opened, winning awards for its architectural design.

Just outside the city's boundaries, in Hellesdon, Broadland District Council spent millions in the late 1980s to build the Norwich Sports Village and Aquapark.

The Aquapark opened in 1991.

The Sports Village and Aquapark were sold to private company Liana Ltd in 2005.

Not long after, the Aquapark then closed to the public.

For a while, members of a private sports club could still swim in it, before it was replaced with an ice rink.
