Hiking
Overlooking the Yare Valley's marshland, the ruins of St Savior's Church are a beguiling sight. Originally built in the 11th century, the building fell into disrepair and has been a ruin for the last two centuries. The modest grave of naturalist Ted Ellis is found here. Ellis lived nearby at Wheatfen Nature Reserve, which he founded and spent much of his years studying.
