Walk 74: Thorpe Marshes

A circular nature reserve managed by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust since 2011, their first urban site. It is full of wildlife, a variety of waterbirds, mammals, and beautiful scenery, the reserve contains an area of open water, which was a former gravel working called St Andrews Broad. It is a great area for city centre schools to visit, with a new educational area, with a newly pond dipping platform.

No parking there, we managed to park nearby, but a short walk from Norwich city centre.

I would definitely recommend wearing wellies!
