SAHAM TONEY
The village is 14.5 miles North of Thetford, 27.3 miles west of Norwich and lies 13.1 miles west of the town of Attleborough where you would find the nearest railway station for the Breckland Line which runs between Cambridge and Norwich. The nearest airport is Norwich International Airport. There is evidence that Saham Toney was close to a significant Romano-British settlement. The Peddars Way footpath, partly using remaining Roman roads, passes close to the village.
The village derives part of its name from the 13-acre mere that is in the parish. The mere is well stocked with fish especially eels of two species, one noted for their delicious, and the other for their nauseous flavour. The mere is thought to be as old as the last ice age. The village includes a church, public house, hotel, a primary school. The Church has some very beautiful stained glass windows, the east window of the chancel portrays the Last Supper, this was a gift by the late Rev. W. H. Parker, who restored the whole building at considerable expense in 1864.
