LONGHAM
Longham, a tranquil village in central Norfolk, lies approximately six miles from Dereham. Longham itself boasts scenic footpaths and bridleways, perfect for exploring the surrounding countryside. Equidistant from Norwich and King’s Lynn, and only four miles northwest of Dereham, Longham serves as an excellent hub for discovering Norfolk’s rural beauty. The village features the inviting Longham White Horse pub and a well-appointed Village Hall with adjacent playing fields. Nearby Swaffham, just 10 miles away, has a Waitrose supermarket. Adjacent to Longham, the village of Litcham offers a delightful array of amenities, including a delicatessen, public house, village shop, and both primary and secondary schools.
Dereham is a classic market town and an architectural haven with plenty of Georgian gems set on generous plots, blended with more recent developments. A twice weekly market, on Tuesdays and Fridays, along with a strong cohort of independent and specialist shops and free parking make the town a fabulous place for an afternoon spent browsing. Look out for the town’s other historic landmarks which include the Mid-Norfolk Railway, a heritage line which runs 1950s railcars to Wymondham Abbey, Dereham Windmill, a Grade II listed building which was saved from the brink of destruction, and Bishop Bonner’s Cottage, established in 1502 and believed to be the oldest building in town.
With good local schools, a leisure centre and golf course, Longham and its surrounding villages are a fantastic spot to enjoy the best of Norfolk country living with easy commuting access to Norwich and the coast at Wells-next-the-Sea, just 20 miles away. Come discover a Norfolk gem.
