Horstead Mill
There has been a mill on the River Bure at Horstead since at least Saxon
times. This was the last on the Bure, it was also one of the biggest,
best known and most photographed in the county. It was gutted by
fire in 1963 and today all that remains is the lower sections of the 18th
century building including its brick arches. It is beautifully maintained
and a family friendly area to relax and explore only 6 miles from North
Walsham. The old mill pond is very popular with swimmers and anglers.
