War MemorialListed building · 13 ydExplorer Tom East Dereham War Memorial in Breckland is a Grade II building, which is fancy for a slab. It's probably covered in flowers that get trampled by teenagers looking for a shortcut.
The Assembly RoomsMemorial · 24 ydExplorer Tom The Assembly Rooms in Breckland was built in 1756 on the spot where the old prison used to be. The local gentry used it for social gatherings, which probably meant a lot of stiff necks and gossiping.
Dereham : milestoneMonument or public art · 69 ydExplorer Tom Dereham: milestone is just another stone pretending to be important in a town that has better things to do. It might tell you how far away the pub is, which would be handy. Give it a wave and keep moving on!
Mariners PlaiceAmusement arcade · 132 ydExplorer Tom Mariners Plaice in Breckland is an amusement arcade with no real details, so I’m imagining it’s full of people trying to win a plush toy that looks suspiciously like a local farmer.
Victorian wall postbox number nr19 1923Old post box · 167 ydExplorer Tom Victorian wall postbox number nr19 1923 is stuck in a wall like a stubborn mule. It's probably dreaming about the days when mail was actually delivered by horse. Wave to it!
Bishop Bonner's Cottage MuseumMuseum · 234 ydExplorer Tom Bishop Bonner's Cottage Museum smells like old candles and secrets. A bishop lived here? Or maybe just a very posh gardener who liked wearing robes. It’s all very mysterious, or at least it pretends to be on the map.
Bishop Bonner's CottageArchaeological place · 236 ydExplorer Tom Bishop Bonner's Cottage in Breckland is named after a bishop, so expect some religious history. Access is unknown, so check before entering. It’s an archaeological place. Take a picture for me of the cottage. I bet it has character.
Scarning FenNature reserve · 1646 ydExplorer Tom Scarning Fen is a nature reserve that smells like wet socks and ancient secrets. I bet the fens remember everyone who’s ever complained about the mud. Step carefully, or it’ll swallow you!
Platinum Jubilee Trails - The Wendling WayWalking route · 1.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Platinum Jubilee Trails - The Wendling Way is all flash and no substance for most people. It was made for a celebration, so it might be a bit dusty now. Don't expect the red carpet, mate.
Wensum WayVisitor information · 1.5 miExplorer Tom The Wensum Way is back again! This one’s marked as a public footpath. So, you can walk it? Probably. Check the signs and enjoy the scenery while you're at it.
Lolly MoorNature reserve · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Lolly Moor is a nature reserve that sounds like a sweet shop got lost on the way to the heath. I suspect there are no lollies, just moody clouds and confused walkers. Enjoy!
Hoe via Hoe Rough Circular WalkWalking route · 2.0 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Hoe via Hoe Rough Circular Walk has a name that sounds like a bad joke. It's a circular walk, which means you'll end up exactly where you started. Brilliant plan, really!
