One of several art installations around the cathedral.

Extraordinarily good property, worth a day trip

Medieval stone bridge open to cyclists and pedestrians, providing a handy crossing over the river that avoids the city traffic.

Impressive fortress that still dominates the centre of Norwich. Now a museum.

Very impressive Normal cathedral, constructed from imported Normandy limestone.

You get the best view of it as you descend towards town from the west along the main Runton Road.

I didn't see any lions, just a lot of squirrels.

One of Norfolk's signature round tower churches.

Very quiet decent to avoid the traffic

Norwich Castle is undergoing major works to restore the floors to their original level of the 12th century so future visitors can truly appreciate what life in the castle was like when it was built. It is still possible to appreciate the royal Norman fortress from the outside.

Norwich Cathedral is over 900 years old with the second tallest spire in England, measuring in at 96m (the tallest is Salisbury). It is mostly a Norman building with some restoration work taking place in the 13th century after it was damaged during riots.

Great coffee and brilliant sausage rolls

Taking the Drayton Lane cycle path that runs parallel to New Drayton Lane gives you an alternative to navigating the 3-lane roundabout at the Broadland Northway junction.

The Bure Valley Railway is a heritage railway offering a nostalgic trip by steam on Norfolk’s longest narrow gauge railway, between the historic market town of Aylsham and bustling town of Wroxham, at the heart of the Norfolk Broads. The Whistlestop Cafe on the station is open to visitors who aren't planning a train ride. The one-way journey to Wroxham takes about 45 minutes if you're thinking of including this on your tour - and you'll need a return ticket as they are currently unable to take bikes on board (Sep '22).

Great off road gravel and works for a gravel bike

Norwich Cathedral dates back to 1096. It is built from cream-coloured limestone, and took over 50 years to complete. If you have time to visit inside, a 17-metre (56 ft) high helter-skelter has been constructed inside the cathedral, to give a better vantage point for viewing the roof bosses, and a fun way down.

Norwich Castle comprises the castle, a museum and art gallery. The castle site is at least 900 years old but may currently be closed due to redevelopment. The large gallery complex converted from the city’s Victorian prison remains open during the works. It houses collections in archaeology, natural history, regimental history, and fine, decorative and contemporary art. Construction work has begun on the Norwich Castle: Royal Palace Reborn project to transform the medieval castle. Because of the building work and health and safety measures to protect visitors and staff, some areas of the castle site are not open.

A surprisingly nice area to stop and the Red Lion opposite is a cracking pub for a pint

Opens from 10am Weds to Sun...
