The previous night we had dinner at Briarfields (Scallops......). There was no telly in the rooms at the rooms at the B&B but we adjourned to the TV room, luckily we were on our own and could enjoy Dr Who on our own with a glass of vino!
It is rather nice waking up in an historic house with great views..... I don't really miss the telly, a good book and a radio is great.
After breaky we headed to Castle Acre to look around the Cluniac Priory..... It rained on arrival but did clear very quickly.
YES I know it is flint but it shows how the walls were constructed and I like the patterns.
We were a tadge early for the tea room so went to Oxburgh Hall.....
still Apples on a tree!
I was here with Dad in August. Lots of colour then and butterflies!!
As it had rained as we got to Castle Acre so I left the pancake power zoom on the camera. So of course Swans turn up ;)
We had Soup (Winter Vegetable) which was delicious (the bread alas was very dry) we also had a slice of carrot cake between us. That was very moist and nice.
I had arranged for one of the 4 Norfolk churches left on my list to be opened :D
Whilst waiting for the key holder we wandered around and found......
804 St Peter's Merton
Thank you to Church Warden Helen for showing us around and being so informative!
