Lovely views onto the halls, the surface here is good in the summer to early autumn

The hall is only just visible over the hedge as you go past. Easy to miss if you're not looking out for it.

ancient English pub and restaurant. After some initial hesitation, we ate here in a fantastic atmosphere.

Nice spot to catch the sunrise.

A broad, straight road impressively lined with an avenue of trees. The gradient gradually descends southwards towards Cockley Cley which can really build your speed.

The Market Cross cafe on the north side is a good option for a refreshment stop: open 7 days a week until 4pm (later on Fridays).

An impressive structure which dominates the skyline on the road to Swaffham near the northern edge of the old North Pickenham RAF base.

Half the church is ruined, destroyed when its tower and spire collapsed in the late 1940s, while the surviving east chapel forms the present church.

The Buttercross is in the middle of Swaffham. It is the centre of a weekly market. When the farmer sold their butter, they opened their stands in the shade of the Buttercross so it wouldn't melt away.

Great tea-room and they will let cyclists in for free to use it :)

You can't take your bike in, have to leave it in the car park. You can't even walk it in case it damages the gravel path! You also have to pay £10 to get to the tea room unless you are a member then it's free

beautiful Church interesting history with stopping to explore

The Drymere Plantation on Swaffham Heath is managed by the forestry commission. The land is open access so you don't have to stick to waymarked footpaths.

To cross the Nar.
