On the north wall is the best single surviving wall painting of the narrative of St Christopher in England. It was restored by a Professor Tristram in the 1930s. The giant figure of the saint bestrides the river opposite the south doorway, just as he does in dozens of East Anglian churches, but here his staff has become a club, and on either bank there are smaller scenes depicting events in his story as recorded in the Golden Legend, a collection of hagiographies compiled in the 13th Century which was hugely popular in the late medieval period as a source for art and storytelling. There are about twenty scenes here. Those to the west of the saint recall his life as a pagan before conversion, and these are mostly lost to us now. But on the east side the scenes are well-preserved, vivid and immediate in their clarity. They show the trials and tribulations he underwent in his life as a Christian, including the occasion on which two women were sent to tempt him in prison

Lovely views from a beautiful church. The narrow spiral stairs and ladders aren’t suitable for very small children or those with mobility issues.

Owned by the Norfolk Archaeological Trust, the ruin of St Benet's Abbey is an evocative sight. At the height of the 12th century, this monastery would have been a major force in the region. Today, the remains stand silent on the banks of the River Bure, testament to a former glory.

Popular with boaters and nature enthusiasts alike, the village of Ranworth has plenty to offer. The floating Broads Wildlife Centre is just a short walk away along an enchanting boardwalk through reedbeds and woodland. St Helen's Church, 'the Cathedral of the Broads' offers a panoramic viewpoint from its 100-foot (30 m) tower. Meanwhile, there are the great food options of the Granary Stores and the Maltsters pub.

Managed by Norfolk Wildlife Trust, the floating Broads Wildlife Centre is a great place to visit to discover more about this beguiling region. Accessible via a charming boardwalk, the centre enjoys splendid views across Ranworth Broad. The wildlife here is majestic, with many seasonal birds, the iconic swallowtail butterfly during the warmer months and cormorants roosting in the twisted remains of dead trees. Osprey's have been known to visit Ranworth Broad in recent years too.

Sometimes referred to as the 'Cathedral of the Broads', St Helen's Church commands a fine position overlooking the Bure Valley. It's possible to ascend to the top of its almost 100-foot (30 m) high tower to gain a magnificent viewpoint across the surrounding countryside. A patchwork of verdant fields and waterways stretches away, with most of the northern rivers and broads visible on a clear day.

The only monastery in England not officially shut down by King Henry VIII during the reformation, the Bishop of Norwich remains the Abbot of St Benet's Abbey to this day. The 14th century gatehouse and 18th century mill are easily identifiable from the ruins.

Fleet Dike links the River Bure with South Walsham Broad. There is a footpath along its eastern edge between the Boat Yard and the ruins of St Benet's Abbey.
