Local places of interest (no more than a 30 minute drive from North Walsham)

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.

Hoveton Hall Gardens

The beautiful Hoveton Hall Estate is situated on the edge of the

Norfolk Broads and covers 620 acres of parkland, gardens, woodland,

arable and grazing land. This fine Regency Hall was built between

1809-1812 and has been owned by the Buxton family since 1946.
