TSS Norwich was a passenger vessel built for the Great Eastern Railway in 1883.[1]

History

The ship was built by Earle's Shipbuilding of Hull for the Great Eastern Railway and launched on 6 March 1883.[2] She was one of a pair of new steamers ordered by the Great Eastern Railway, the other being {{SS|Ipswich|1883|2}}. She was launched by the Mayoress of Norwich.

She was placed on the Harwich to Rotterdam and Antwerp route.[3]

She was withdrawn from service in 1905 and sold in 1906 to the Channel Drydock and Shipbuilding Company. After a succession of subsequent ownership in Cape Verde, Montevideo, New York and Mexico, she sank in 1921 when under the ownership of the Mexican Fruit and Steamship Company.
