The name comes from the paper mill, which was found at this part of the site between 1884 and 1900.

Recorded plaque organisation: Norwich Heritage Economic and Regeneration Trust.
Carrow Works, established by Colman's in the 19th century, was a significant industrial complex that produced not only renowned mustard but also various other food products and household items, reflecting the expansive manufacturing capabilities of the era.
