Great café.

One of the most impressive set of priory ruins in the east of England. Only visit if you're not wearing road cleats though.

Castle Acre Priory is one of the largest and best-preserved monastic sites in England, dating back to 1090. It was the home of the first Cluniac order of monks in England and the Cluniac love of decoration is everywhere reflected in the extensive ruins. There is much to see at the priory, including the beautiful west end church gable, prior’s lodging and substantial remains of many of the buildings round the cloister. Herbs are grown in the recreated herb garden, which the monks would have used for medicinal, culinary and decorative purposes. Such an amazing place and very atmospheric around sunset, it does cost to get in and closes early but is worth, you can walk around the outskirts for free and this is best down at sunset or sunrise, a truly beautiful spot full of history. https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/castle-acre-castle-acre-priory/

Lovely crossing to the south of Castle Acre if you come in following the Peddars way, there is a view out to the old Monastery.

Impressive remains but only viewable from a distance unless you're an English Heritage member or pay the entrance fee.

The lane south of the ford is narrow with a very poor surface. It, and the ford, are passable on a road bike but better suited to a gravel bike.

Castle Rising in Norfolk is one of the most famous 13th century castles in the whole of England. The stones used to build the castle were produced around 1140D and are beautifully preserved. The castle holds a rich history and the grounds are open to the public to explore for a small fee. There is some more information regarding opening times, prices and events here http://castlerising.com/visit-us/

Opposite the entrance there is a grassy area with shade which is ideal for a picnic stop
