A small but perfectly formed museum, created inside a WW2 anti-aircraft gunner training Dome in the middle of Langham Airfield in north Norfolk. We offer a wide variety of opportunities for learning and fun for all the family - informative displays and videos, online games, a dressing up cupboard, a training gun to have a go on, a picnic site and much more.
From the driving past the outside you would not realise how interesting this little dome would be! Stop though and read the information encapsulated on the tops of the picnic tables in the grounds and you get a taste of things to come! We found the exhibits and films thoroughly absorbing! A great insight into how the war affected the lives of the people this sleepy hamlet!

Baconsthorpe Castle - really an old manor house with a moat is a wonderfully preserved ruin with the old moat. Out in the sticks (well it was originally for a sheep rearing family), its a little tricky to find outside the nearby village, along farmers tracks, but well worth the effort. Small free car park, and free to visit. Well maintained by English Heritage. No tourist trappings or rubbish here. Wonderful way to spend the morning watching swans on the moat!

The Holt Owl Trail is a walking circular guided route around the historic Georgian town of Holt. By following the direction of the Owl featuring on each of the bronze pavement plaques, the trail unlocks many of the hidden Yards that are a tucked behind the main streets. The free illustrated Guide can be found in Holt which accompanies the trail and provides fascinating information.
The Holt Owl Trail is just great. It is a terrific idea to have plaques on the pavement that guide you around 24 different points of interest. Stop at the new Council Offices in historic Nelson House on White Lyon Street near the Owl Tea room and Adnams and pick up a guide book which will assist you around this Historic Georgian town. The booklet is current and up to date and it is easy to spot the points of interest. The text is informative but not too long full of facts and stories. Finish your walking tour with a trip to the bookshop in Appleyard where you can pick up a copy of Escapades in Holt: A fine Georgian Town and you can continue the fun following Olly the owl as he poetically explains even more about the town and its history.
