About Titchwell Marsh
This popular reserve on the north Norfolk coast has something for everyone. A walk from the visitor centre down to the sandy beach takes you past reedbeds and shallow lagoons, which are often full of birds. You can sit on benches or watch from spacious, wheelchair-accessible hides.

Snettisham Park
Set in traditional carr stone barns with a walled garden and adjacent paddocks, Snettisham Park Farm is a traditional Norfolk farm growing wheat, barley, sugar beet and grass. We have 500 Suffolk mules which lamb from February until May each year and the lambing barn really is the heart of the Farm at this time. Visitors can see lambs being born, ewes and lambs mothering and even bottle feed an orphan lamb during this season.

Bircham Windmill
Standing in the heart of Norfolk's undulating fields, Bircham Windmill now looks as it did over 100 years ago. At that time over 300 mills ground corn for horse & cattle feed and bread-making in Norfolk.
Today, very few windmills are left, and Bircham Mill is considered one of the best still remaining: it is the only windmill in working order in this area open to the public. www.birchamwindmill.co.uk
