The coast of North Norfolk and the towns and villages that stand along and behind it make up one of the most delightful parts of the British Isles. Areas of outstanding beauty include paradises for bird and animal lovers, such as Scolt Head Island, Blakeney Point and Cley and Salthouse marshes. Today’s celebrated landscape is the product of a fascinating history. That this was a rich part of the country in the Middle Ages is shown by the many glorious churches, some with tall towers acting as waymarks. There were monastic houses, too, the most important being Walsingham, which was a place of pilgrimage for thousands including every medieval king of England. Landowning families that built great houses along the coast or just inland included the Rolfes of Heacham, forever associated with Princess Pocahontas, the Bacons at Stiffkey, and the Lestranges of Hunstanton Hall, immortalised in fiction by P.G. Wodehouse. Away from the coast settlements such as the Burnhams and Holt developed as market towns. The latter was devastated by fire in 1708 and newly discovered documents help bring this dramatic event to life. The area has produced its fair share of great seafarers, from admirals such as Christopher Myngs and Cloudesley Shovel to lifeboatman hero Henry Blogg. Horatio Nelson, one of England’s most famous sons, was born in Burnham Thorpe. The brave men of the coast fished the hostile North Sea and beyond, traded with Iceland and Scandinavia, and served on the frontline in wars with the Spanish, French and, most recently, Germans. Since the early 19th century the area has also seen the rise of tourism. Cromer grew following the arrival of the railway and the promotion of ‘Poppyland’ by Clement Scott and is mentioned as a watering town by Jane Austen. Hunstanton was developed as a seaside resort by the l’Estranges. Frank Meeres has put this beautiful corner of the county into historical context so that residents and visitors will enjoy discovering its special heritage.

Norfolk is a very distinctive county, the most easterly in the British Isles. With the North Sea and The Wash to the east and north it is relatively close to the Netherlands, but Norwich is only a couple of hours by train from London. It has been a center of great political power, but is on no major transport routes, so has no motorways and has been largely bypassed by the Industrial Revolution. As a result, many of its towns and villages are relatively unspoiled, so have kept their old buildings and character and are a delight to visit. Although known for its wide open landscapes, of which there are many, Norfolk has an abundance of delightful corners and beautiful gardens where it is the miniature that charms and tranquillity reigns. This beautiful photo book captures the essence of Norfolk's varied landscapes in sumptuous images and an informative text that gets underneath the surface of why things look like they do. The Norfolk Broads, Breckland, The Waverley Valley, The Fens and the coastlines are explored in turn along with the wildlife you can encounter on the way. In addition, Norfolk's lovely churches that punctuate every view, and the distinctive traditional buildings that give each area its special flavor are featured. Doug Kennedy has roamed the County on foot and by boat, seeking out what makes each place special and applying his photographer's eye to capture the scene perfectly. It is a book for everyone who loves the Norfolk to treasure, and a splendid introduction to its landscape for those less familiar with a classic corner of England.

This new, thoroughly updated second edition of Bradt's Norfolk, part of the distinctive 'Slow travel' series of guides to UK regions, remains the only full-blown standalone guide available to this county of contrasts, from the fine medieval city of Norwich to the watery wilderness of the Broads and the sweeping beaches of the superlative north Norfolk coast. As well as featuring all the main sights, Bradt's Norfolk covers places and aspects of the region not detailed by other guidebooks and has a special emphasis on car-free travel, walking, local food and pubs. It also includes personal anecdotes and the views of local people as well as tapping into the Norfolk-based author's considerable knowledge of the region. Making a virtue of being selective, the guide points visitors to the cream of the area, but includes the whole of Norfolk from Great Yarmouth and the Broads in the east to the Fens of the far west, from the iconic north Norfolk coast to the Breckland region to the south. Places to eat and drink are selected by the author based upon long-standing knowledge of the area, in particular delving into aspects of local distinctiveness and character. Flora and fauna are also covered, detailing the many wildlife sites within the county that are home to rare species, including the iconic Swallowtail butterfly, and information is provided on many of the best birdwatching spots. Hiking and biking, literary and artistic connections, canoeing and water-based activities, local food and drink, and all the practical information you could need are included, helping to make this the must-have guide for all visitors to this beguiling county. Written in an entertaining style combining personal narrative with authoritative information, Bradt's Norfolk has all the most up-to-date information you could need for a successful visit.
