シェルトンアンドハードウィックでの 周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

The more scenic alternative to the modern road bridge on the adjacent B1062. A popular swim and picnic spot in the summer.

I was there today and was attacked by horseflies which started biting my legs as soon as I arrived, so I beat a hasty retreat. The river by the bridge at Homersfield is easier access.

A great place to canoe from if heading into Bungay and the variousMills and maltings. Heading out towards Earsham its a little shallow so I'd recommend plastic boats only.

Before Flixton quarry was put into use, an archeological survey discovered numerous evidence of Neolithic activity in the immediate area, including pits, ditches and ceramic artefacts. A mammoth tusk was also found here during excavations. Today, a large area of the pits is a thriving habitat for birds and wildlife. You’ll find an information board just above the quarry and keep an eye out for the birds that call this open water area home.

The oldest concrete bridge in Great Britain, Homersfield bridge has one foot in Suffolk and one in Norfolk as it crosses the River Waveney. A grade II listed structure, this charming span is a lovely place to pause and admire the river and it chuckles along its wandering path. Built in 1869, it’s made of concrete and has a wrought iron frame within. It was restored in the 90s and now hosts only foot and bike traffic.

A first class lunch stop a minute from the Angles Way footpath. Just be aware that from time to time there could be a bull in the field and the obvious danger of deep water.

Quite a nice place to get in to the water if you have a plastic canoe as the water is shallow. The Black Swan pub or The Dirty Duck as its known by the locals is a stones throw away too and a quite excellent pub

Nice little stop with a place to rest your legs in the shallow river. 2 x pubs nearby with the Black Swan and Wortwell Bell
