kept Blickling going. The estate is a treasure trove of

Aylsham is near the source of
the River Bure, about 10 miles north of Norwich
and about the same south of Sheringham and
Cromer.
The town’s recorded names at the time of the
Domesday Book were Ailesham and Elesham. The
community predates the Norman Conquest, and the
linen and wool industries can be thanked for a
great deal of the town’s affluence. With so much
history, easy access to the countryside, Norfolk
Broads, coast and city of Norwich, this area of
Norfolk is an excellent base for any type of
holiday from relaxed to adventurous. |
