CASTON
Home of the Red Lion pub and restaurant, this rural Norfolk village also has a primary school and church. Caston is just over 6 miles from Attleborough where there are multiple supermarkets, shops, train station to Norwich and London and doctors surgery. Caston is just 4 miles away from the market town of Watton in the district of Breckland, just less than 25 miles from Norwich. Perfectly positioned for access to the whole of Norfolk and North Suffolk, this town is thought to be where the `Babes in the Wood` were abandoned in Wayland Wood. You will see on the town sign that there are two babes, and a hare jumping over the barrel reflecting the town name; "wat" being the local dialect word for hare, and "ton" for barrel. There is a traditional market held every Wednesday morning with produce including freshly caught fish, and there are two supermarkets and a number of independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs to enjoy. Within reach is the popular Thetford Forest Park, a number of golf courses, other market towns and not forgetting the cathedral city of Norwich.
