two and a half castles (Castle Acre, Castle Rising, and Weeton)

Which was the half-castle? We've been to Castle Acre and Castle Rising, can't remember if we've been to Weeton.

some graves (Grimes)

What did you think of them? (We've been there too, on the same holiday as the above castles.)

We enjoyed visiting Holkham too.

At Swaffham the Wind Turbine is well worth visiting. The exhibitions in the eco-building are great. There is also a wonderful organic restaurant. You can also climb the tower of the turbine; [livejournal.com profile] amalion did, I chickened out. :-( The noise and the motion of the tower did for me when the guide kept stopping; if I'd been given the opportunity to keep going I'd have probably been OK. The reason for the stops was to give the unfit a chance to catch their breath and to allow the nervous to realise that there was nothing wrong. All it did for me was allow all the phobias of being able to fall to catch up with me. Ho hum.

We did find a good restaurant in Swaffham, unfortunately I can't remember its name, it was off the market square on the western side. Not that that is much good as there were several that met that description!
