Standard village pub, nothing much to say.

The sign dubiously claims a max gradient of 15%. My Wahoo topped out at just over 6% which felt about right.

A wonderful little pub that is the centre of life in this village, it often has guest food vans that do amazing food, when were there in September 2023 there was Marg and Rita's Pizza Van, very nice indeed. https://www.facebook.com/margandritas https://www.facebook.com/hockham.eagle/?locale=en_GB

4km long road through the heart of Thorpe Woodlands. Includes a 2.5km and a 1.25km straight, linked by a gentle curve, that are wide with a fairly even surface and sheltered from the wind by the trees: perfect for an interval session or a fast pace line.

The approach from the A1066 to the south offers a short but fast descent (max 7%) to the River Thet, a rarity in this part of the world. Watch out for the off-camber 90 degree left turn at the bottom, with a large pot hole in the middle, which can easily catch you out.

As the name aptly suggests; it's all in the photos. Nothing more to add. I was on a 200km touring ride, not attempting a KOM or some such. A very pleasant surprise nonetheless to hv encountered it - had no previous knowledge of its existence - glad to hv found it by pure coincidence. Always brings a smile to face to see cycling 'non-business' related stuff. Just pure awareness, friendly 🚲 stuff. 🙂

On the Lowe Caravan Park site: no signage to indicate its presence from the road so you need to know it's there. Only open 10am-2pm Thu-Sun.

Easily the best coffee for miles around, only diminished by the lack of bike parking or outdoor seating, so it's a case of prop your bike out front where you can see it while you pop in to place your order.
