Property description

LITTLE FRANSHAM/GREAT FRANSHAM Located between the market towns of Dereham and Swaffham, Great Fransham is a Norfolk village, close to the A47 and city of Norwich. Little Fransham has a public house called The Canary and Linett and a farm shop, with further amenities approximately 6 miles away from the villages. Dereham is a busy market town mixing both the new with the old. Modern shops merge comfortably into a heritage dating back to the 10th century when Withburga, daughter of a Saxon king, established a religious community in the deer park, which gave the town its name. Free parking allows you time to stroll around seeking out the restaurants and cafes or for an afternoon shop. There are museums, a leisure centre, golf course and schools within the town, or for the nature lovers take a stroll along the Neatherd Moor and the Vicarage Meadow. Slightly further a field are the ruins of the Saxon Cathedral at North Elmham, the wildlife and Dinosaur Parks, Pensthorpe, a bird lovers paradise and Thetford Forest Park. Norwich has good local transport links with the town and has an international airport and a mainline rail link to Liverpool Street, London.
