Thetford is a delightful market town in the county of Norfolk, just south of the vast Thetford Forest. There are records of activity in the Thetford area dating back to Neolithic times. The town is also known for its links with the warrior queen Boudicca, the flame-haired heroine who led the revolt against the Romans. This ancient market town offers an abundance of history and heritage sites, tranquil gardens, a relaxing riverside and is a great base from which to explore the diverse wildlife and varied outdoor pleasures of the area.
If you are visiting Thetford, be sure to include a visit to the Thetford Art Centre in the heart of Thetford, providing residents and visitors a wider experience of visual and creative arts and crafts. Another must for the visitor’s itinerary is the Breckland Leisure Centre & Waterworld, featuring waves, rapids, water cannons and flume fun. The BTO (British Trust for Ornithology) Nunnery Lakes & Nature Reserve is a quiet retreat in the grounds of a 12th Century Nunnery in Thetford with a series of beautiful, wildlife-friendly gardens. Another treat is the unusual landmark that is Castle Hill. This is England’s tallest medieval earthwork – 81 feet high and 1,000 feet around the base. It was built after the Norman Conquest although defence works on the site date back to the Iron Age.
