I have been thinking about my Top 10 heritage sites in Norfolk. This is very much a personal choice, and the locations are placed in (rough) chronological order. I have tried to include a variety of types of heritage site. How can you decide between Norwich Cathedral and Norwich Castle? Or between Felbrigg and Blickling? Castle Rising and Castle Acre?
Grime’s Graves. You can descend into the Neolithic flint mines.

Burgh Castle. One of the best preserved Roman forts of the Saxon Shore.

Norwich Cathedral. The cathedral is an architectural gem and dominates the city.

Binham Priory. Part of the Benedictine priory is still in use as the parish church.

Castle Rising. This well-preserved keep is dominated by a series of earthworks.

Oxburgh Hall. The moated hall at Oxburgh contains fabulous tapestries.

Felbrigg Hall. The 17th century front to the house is a gem.

Holkham Hall. One of the most magnificent houses and Grand Tour collections in Norfolk.

The North Norfolk Railway (The Poppy Line). The journey between Sheringham and Holt provides views of the coast as well as the Norfolk countryside.

Sandringham. The Royal residence sits in the middle of extensive landscaped grounds.
