High Ash Farm

Reviewed By UK-Hiker49 - Norwich, United Kingdom

Always a good place for a walk at any time of the year, especially in the summer when the wildflower meadows are in full bloom. All credit to the landowner who has provided this to the public and keeps it looking good, with the paths regularly mowed. Park in the Caistor Roman Town car park just across the road and you can visit that free as well!

Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse

Stand in the evocative workhouse settings, face to face with projections of staff and inmates and listen to first hand stories, often tragic, sometimes inspirational, from the people who once walked these whitewashed corridors. Visit Land Girl and Lumber Jills, old village shops, re-created cottage garden, orchard and traditional farm with rare breed livestock. Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse makes a superb setting for themed event days, family fun activities, school holiday fun and courses in traditional crafts.

I visited (with a friend) Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse, last Thursday (March 12th), my friend got in free, because I have got health issues, we enjoyed looking around many parts of the Museum, including the Museum of Norfolk Life, the Engineering Galleries, the Rural Life Gallery, the 1950's Room, the many sections of the Museum, where you could read about the Workhouse, Cherry Tree Cottage, the School Room, the Chapel and Village Row Shops, we also enjoyed looking at the Panhard Car, there was lots of interesting information, to read, there wasn't time to read everything, unfortunately, me and my friend, didn't have the time to visit Gressenhall Farm, we will definitely visit the Farm, next time, we visit Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse, we went in the Mardlers Rest Cafe, where I enjoyed a cup of Tea, a Bakewell Tart and a packet of Cheese and Onion Crisps, my friend enjoyed a cup of Tea, I bought some nice items, in the Gift Shop, the staff at Gressenhall, were very friendly, I last visited Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse, two years ago, with my mum and her sister, recommended for anyone interested in history.
