| Landmarks/Sites to see? |
Worth seeing in Hingham is St Andrew's church, which was built in the late 14th century. In Wymondham there is plenty shops, pubs and public toilets. Worth looking at Market Cross and the Town Museum (Britain's first model prison). Nice place for lunch to is a restored railway station themed tea rooms close to the main station. Finally just south of Deopham is an ex WW2 USAAF airfield. Used actively in 1942 it is now abandoned but can still be visited by the public.
