It’s magical to walk here as this was the site of the Roman town Venta Icenorum ‘Market Place of the Iceni’ and predecessor of the county city of Norwich!

This is a fantastic ‘feel good’ walk for those wanting a moderate pace (mainly Gear 2) with the poles. Expect hills... and bring along a flask of coffee as we love a CAR BOOT CAFE WEATHER PERMITTING!!!
