Not too far from the town centre either . Very handy car park

Also known as Upton Black Mill due to its tarred black tower, Upton Tall Mill is a classic Norfolk drainage mill. It's thought to date back to around 1800 and is now a private residence. Its boat-shaped cap helps to make this a particularly conspicuous landmark on any walk in this part of the Broads.

With its impressive fleet of vessels, Eastwood Whelpton is a classic Broads boatyard. Located on the edge of the village of Upton, it connects to the River Bure via Upton Dyke. Nearby is the beguiling sight of Palmers Hollow Post Mill, one of only two 'Hollow Post' drainage mills remaining in the national park. For a walk rich in wildlife, it's just a short stroll to Upton Broad and Marshes nature reserve from here.

A gorgeous reserve in the heart of the Broads, Upton Broad and Marshes hosts several distinctive habitats. Its mix of alder carr woodland, fen, reedbed and grazing marsh makes it a haven for some of the region's most coveted wildlife, including the swallowtail butterfly. You might also see water voles, otters and a huge range of dragonflies, with over 20 recorded species.

Closed Sunday to Tuesday, and only open until 3pm Saturday.

On this stretch of the River Bure you can see two examples of drainage mills, Upton Mill and Oby Drainage Mills. The mills pump water from the dikes out to tidal waterways to keep the land free of water. This is now done by electrical pumps but the windmills remain an iconic feature of the landscape.

Ideal cafe stop on a ride. Very nice food. My tuna baguette was delicious! A couple of outdoor tables, and room to lean two or three bikes on the side wall. Check opening times on Google Maps.

Standing in isolation, overlooking marshes to the north-east, with a few pine trees round it, the setting of St Mary’s is memorable. There is no village with the name Fishley, only Fishley Hall is close by. The west part of the nave and the lower part of the tower were built in flint at the same time in the 11th century, but the top section of brick with the stone belfry openings was probably rebuilt in the 16th or 17th century. Lower down the earlier openings in the tower have also been infilled with brick. These 14th century bricks might have been re-used from the earlier Hall, to the north-east of the Church. Many of the windows in the church were changed in the 19th century, as well as the tower roof from a cone shaped one to have a parapet, the south porch was added then, and the steeply-pitched slate roof, which also covers the aisle (called a cat-slide-roof!). The porch iron gates were placed here in 2009, with A M, for Ave Maria. More: https://www.roundtowerchurches.net/norfolk/norfolk-c-g/fishley-2/
