Also known as Upton Black Mill due to its tarred black tower, Upton Tall Mill is a classic Norfolk drainage mill. It's thought to date back to around 1800 and is now a private residence. Its boat-shaped cap helps to make this a particularly conspicuous landmark on any walk in this part of the Broads.

With its impressive fleet of vessels, Eastwood Whelpton is a classic Broads boatyard. Located on the edge of the village of Upton, it connects to the River Bure via Upton Dyke. Nearby is the beguiling sight of Palmers Hollow Post Mill, one of only two 'Hollow Post' drainage mills remaining in the national park. For a walk rich in wildlife, it's just a short stroll to Upton Broad and Marshes nature reserve from here.

Popular with boaters and nature enthusiasts alike, the village of Ranworth has plenty to offer. The floating Broads Wildlife Centre is just a short walk away along an enchanting boardwalk through reedbeds and woodland. St Helen's Church, 'the Cathedral of the Broads' offers a panoramic viewpoint from its 100-foot (30 m) tower. Meanwhile, there are the great food options of the Granary Stores and the Maltsters pub.

Managed by Norfolk Wildlife Trust, the floating Broads Wildlife Centre is a great place to visit to discover more about this beguiling region. Accessible via a charming boardwalk, the centre enjoys splendid views across Ranworth Broad. The wildlife here is majestic, with many seasonal birds, the iconic swallowtail butterfly during the warmer months and cormorants roosting in the twisted remains of dead trees. Osprey's have been known to visit Ranworth Broad in recent years too.

Sometimes referred to as the 'Cathedral of the Broads', St Helen's Church commands a fine position overlooking the Bure Valley. It's possible to ascend to the top of its almost 100-foot (30 m) high tower to gain a magnificent viewpoint across the surrounding countryside. A patchwork of verdant fields and waterways stretches away, with most of the northern rivers and broads visible on a clear day.

On this stretch of the River Bure you can see two examples of drainage mills, Upton Mill and Oby Drainage Mills. The mills pump water from the dikes out to tidal waterways to keep the land free of water. This is now done by electrical pumps but the windmills remain an iconic feature of the landscape.

The only monastery in England not officially shut down by King Henry VIII during the reformation, the Bishop of Norwich remains the Abbot of St Benet's Abbey to this day. The 14th century gatehouse and 18th century mill are easily identifiable from the ruins.
