In 1604 the whole roof of All Saints church was carried away in a storm. In 1737 there was a restoration, with the nave walls being raised three feet. The chancel was re-roofed at a lower level than before, which left the east window in its ogee-gabled wall with nothing behind its upper tracery of 14th century reticulated pattern. It wasn’t until the beginning of the 20th century that the roof was restored to its full height. The church walls show many signs of old windows being blocked and new ones cut through in different places, and buttresses have been added. The tower is basically 12th century; in the 15th century an octagonal belfry replaced the earlier one. Near the top of the flint circular part is a band of stone and above that there are 19th century bricks inside, so maybe the belfry and parapet were restored then. On the west wall of the tower, at about ten feet high, is a slit window, with dressed stone for its frame and a single stone for its lintel, in which an arch is cut.

This combined wind and watermill is one-of-a-kind in Norfolk. Built in 1821 on the site of an earlier watermill, its water-wheel once turned two pairs of stones on the first floor whilst its sails turned two pairs of stones on the fourth floor. Unfortunately, the mill is not open to the public. However, it is still worth looking at the building from the outside and getting a photo.
