Potter Heigham Bridge is believed to date from 1385 and crosses the River Thurne. You can see how the surrounding landscape has evolved over time due to increasing tourism on the Broads, however the tranquillity that the river provides still remains.

Breydon Water
Begin your walk by catching the train to Berney Arms and you’ll have visited the remotest train station in Britain!
Walking along the Wherryman’s Way from Berney Arms to Great Yarmouth, you’ll follow the water’s edge allowing for panoramic views across the ever changing Breydon Water. Visit at different times of the day and year to see vast mud flats and numerous waders.
