Two extraordinary medieval treasures - giving a remarkable insight into life in Norfolk hundreds of years ago - have been preserved for the people of the county.
The remarkable manuscripts from the 15th and 16th centuries, one of which includes delicate diagrams of the solar system and a fold-out world map, can be carefully conserved, following a funding boost.
They will then go on display when the Norwich Castle Keep transformation scheme is complete.
