Gift Shops in Norwich

Head In The Clouds was established in Norwich by Martin Wyatt in April 1971. It is now the oldest headshop in the UK, and we strive to continue the hippie ethos with a groovy, love and peace atmosphere of incense and laughter.

The front room layout has barely changed since we opened, but we extended our clothes room in the early 1980s, and relocated our shoes and beads to our sister shop, Feet On The Ground, next door.

hi there, i just thought i would drop you a line to say thank you for being there all this time, like coming home for me every time i visit.

since moving away from the area i havent been able to visit your shop as much as i would have liked.

imagine how happy i was to find that you finally have a website too :)

i love the pictures, they brought home so lovely memories for me.

i discovered what everyone at school called 'head in the shed' when i was about 12 and fell in love with the place instantly.

on tuesday i was in the shop with my son who is now 12 and he was equally enthralled with it.

i told him that this was a place where 'the song remains the same' and that it always made me feel warm inside, the familiar smells and atmosphere, the friendly nature and the knowledge that you will always find what you are looking for there.

"My dad calls this the mellow shop."

"Head In The Clouds: as always, full of love."

I started going to head in the clouds since i was about 16.....( now in my 50's)....whenever i visit norfolk...it's one of the first places i visit and i bring back lots of smellies and other goodies....I love it......long may it reign!
