the Deli is a great refuelling stop with really friendly staff. ( Closed Mondays and Tuesdays)

Castle Rising is a great example of a stone Norman castle with surrounding earthworks to match it is a monumental defensive position with a keep that is still largely in tact, within the keep there are many accessible rooms and some are still covered or have been restored. Worth a visit if your cycling this way. One of the largest, best preserved and most lavishly decorated keeps in England, surrounded by 20 acres of mighty earthworks. Building of the castle was begun in 1138 by the Norman lord William d'Albini for his new wife, the widow of Henry I. In the 14th century it became the luxurious residence of Queen Isabella, widow (and alleged murderess) of Edward II. https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/castle-rising-castle/

A secluded and well surfaced lane, mostly pea grit and good for most bikes.

A lovely ride along the avenue towards the estate.

Beautiful examples of Barrow's that have survived quite well mainly due to how flat the landscape is here. They stand proud of the landscape and are particularaly atmospheric at dusk.

Sitting near the route of the old Peddars Way trackway. Amazing to think that these barrows have seen the Romans, Angles, Vikings and Normans all go by, standing inviolable and immutable.

Not much of the castle is visible from the road, hidden behind its huge outer earthworks, and a visit isn't really practical if you're in road cleats, but worth a glimpse.

Traffic-free connection between Castle Rising and Sandringham, with nice views across the pastures by the Babingley River to Wolferton Wood.

Delightful lane, wide but quiet and protected by a grand double avenue of trees.

Just above the descent to Burnham Market, with views of Brancaster Hall to the north-west and distant glimpses of the sea and the offshore turbines to the north-east.

The scenic birthplace of England's greatest naval hero. The wide green and double street is surrounded by chi-chi shops for the North Norfolk Coast tourist trade. There's a bakery for coffee, savouries and buns, as well as a tea room and cafe if you want to sit in.

Quiet, scenic driveway twisting through the woods of the Sandringham Estate, wide and easy to ride.

Impressive country house set in enormous landscaped grounds, with free through-access for cycles. The cricket pitch on the north lawn by the house and lake must have one of the best settings in the country!

The grand approach to Sandringham's (private) main entrance at the elaborate Norwich Gates, reached by a short, sharp climb from Dersingham.

The King's English country estate is a huge and impressive area of woods and parkland, with shaded roads and scenic views aplenty.

There's a pleasant riverside rest spot just next to the bridge on the east bank, overlooking a pool in the river between the bridge and a small weir.

The original building, where the bar is located, was built over 400 years ago by Abraham Lincoln's 6-greats grandad!

Great location, overlooking the green and the large village pond.

A long, gentle incline through a shallow valley, with scenic fields and woods rising each side. Lovely route.

Tucked away down a little lane by the side of the church, but worth finding.
