Potter Heigham Bridge is an iconic bridge spanning the River Thurne in the village of Potter Heigham. It dates back to the 13th century and is believed to be one of the oldest surviving bridges in Norfolk. Potter Heigham Bridge is a popular spot for tourists and boaters exploring the Norfolk Broads. During the boating season, it can get quite busy with vessels navigating through the narrow arch, making it a fascinating sight for visitors.

Things to know: First of all, it is a delightful walk. If you begin at Ludham Bridge, there are plenty of places to park along the road. They are free parking pull-outs, so you're not exposed to parking on a narrow street. There is a bakery and public toilets. Although the walk parallels the river, you're not really next to it, except for a couple of spots. Nonetheless it's still very picturesque. Most of the path was easy to navigate accept for one short stretch where the tall grass had obscured the trail. It was very short, and if you look to your left, you'll see the posts of a short bridge, so just aim for that. At about the halfway point is How Hill Estate. It's rather a dramatic building with a thatched roof. Unusual for a building that size. I think you can get a room there if you're not from the area. There's a large lawn there, a place to watch the boats and, most importantly, public toilets and take-away café. It can be busy on the weekends so pick your day. Although we were there on a Sunday in July and it wasn't bad. Then it's back the way you came. FYI The Dog pub is just a short, safe, walk up the road from the start/end of the walk, in case you're interested.

Pub by the ferry with nice outside space. Lunches good but check opening times I think it's closed Monday and Tuesday

St Edmunds Church is A medieval parish church with a 13th century chancel, a 14th century tower and nave, and some 15th century windows. The church was restored in 1853. In the mid 17th century Richard Ferrer was buried here in an ox hide and horns in order to confuse future historians! It is also open to the public most days and has won open church of the year for several years.

Only reachable by boat across the River Ant, Turf Fen Drainage Mill is an attractive 19th-century windmill. It was built to drain the marsh behind it so that livestock could graze on the land. It has been restored by the Norfolk Windmills Trust, after falling out of use in 1920.

This is a medieval bridge which crosses the River Thurne. It is incredibly low and very difficult to navigate. Built in the late 14th century, it prevents a lot of boat traffic traffic from reaching further upriver.
