Area - East Beckham

East beckham
A pretty rural village, set within beautiful Norfolk countryside East Beckham has lovely lovely walks and places to cycle.

Lord of the Manor of East Beckham, James Gresham (1442–1497), was the grandfather of the Sir John Gresham who founded the popular Gresham's School. He was the great-grandfather of the Sir Thomas Gresham who himself established Gresham College and the Royal Exchange in London.

Just a few miles away are the sandy beaches of Sheringham and Cromer and the picturesque Georgian market town of Holt.

At the heart of Sheringham is a thriving high street with a parade of independent shops peppered with plenty of tourist stops offering sugary treats and colourful postcards. Park at the top of the hill, next to the heritage North Norfolk Railway, which runs steam and diesel trains to Holt in the summer months, and wind your way down to the seafront where a stunning Blue Flag pebble and sandy beach awaits for an indulgent hour spent stone-skimming.

At the end of the high street stands the Sheringham Little Theatre, a real local treasure which attracts an illustrious cast of actors from the nationals and is renowned for a vibrant summer rep season and glorious Christmas panto. The Hub, in the theatre's foyer, is a fantastic community café and place to catch up on neighbourhood news.

Locals love to celebrate the town's heritage, with a week of Viking themed events in February, a shared Crab and Lobster Festival with Cromer in May and an all-out carnival in August.

After the bustle of town, step away from the crowds and head along the Norfolk Coastal path to the top of Beeston Bump, just 15 minutes out of town, and immerse yourself in nature as you survey stunning views over the North Sea, Sheringham and West Runton. Or for an even bigger adventure, head to Sheringham Park and take the Repton Walk to the Gazebo for 360° views across the surrounding countryside.
