Great food, lovely staff and plenty of space in the garden and the owner promises a free banana for cyclists! (At least those doing the rebellion way)

Large pub garden with sheltered seating available.

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.

Lovely pub 🙂 open during the daytime mid week (when I went)

The 14th century gatehouse is almost all that remains of Pentney Abbey. It is now a unique wedding venue. Many of the houses in Pentney, as well as Abbey Farm were built using stone from the main priory which was built in the early 12th century.

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.

The west tower of St John's Church is mainly all that survives after the parish church fell into disrepair after the reformation. In the 18th century it was reported that the church was converted into cottages but the only thing taking shelter there now are horses and sheep. It is possible that neighbouring St John's Farm was partly built from masonry from the church.

St Mary's Church was tragically consumed by fire in February 2022. It dates from the 11th century and as the last remaining parish church of four, it had been undergoing a restoration project. The saxon tower still stands and it is hoped that the church will be rebuilt.
