A clump of bluebells growing by the roadside on Long Road. A crop of oilseed rape can be seen growing in the background. See > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1273297 for a wider view of this location. Bluebells are also called wild hyacinths and can normally be found growing in wooded areas. The plants flower between April and June.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Christmas Day 2007 is a wet one here in North Norfolk, where it has been raining steadily all morning; because of the dampness the berries in the hedgerow glimmer like tiny baubles.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Approaching junction with New Road/Long Road. Gritters were busy in Norfolk this morning treating main roads, leaving conditions particularly bad on minor roads during the coldest cold snap of the winter so far. Around 10 centimetres of snow fell on frozen roads and made driving conditions difficult.

Dist:0.2km<br/>The spiders' webs that cover grass and shrubs are still wet from early morning dew and mist, the beads of water being illuminated by the sun just rising above the shadows cast by the large oak trees.

Dist:0.2km<br/>This church may have been built on the foundations of a much earlier one. At the beginning of the 19th century it was restored in a small way which thankfully has not destroyed the rural charm of the interior. Most of the furnishings appear to be Victorian as are the cast-iron Royal Arms which hang on the wall. A simple austere trefoil piscina and dropped-sill sedilia in the sanctuary are coeval with the building of the church, only the height of a step defines the chancel from the nave
