Norfolk is so so overlooked, shadowed by Cornwall, Devon, Yorkshire..... But it is at least their equal... 95miles worth of beaches, a waterway system that is bigger than Venice, low cost of living.... One of the most important and largest cities (up to Medieval times) and loads and loads of countryside walks ....

Hi, this is our video you used for your Norfolk reaction! It was our first trip to Norfolk and we hadn't realised what an absolutely beautiful part of the country it is. This trip was July 2020 and anything indoors was still closed at this point, so I'd love to return now things have opened up - I feel like we only scratched the surface! Not surprised you had a lot of comments on the Norfolk Broads, what a place... a total highlight of our trip! Your video was so fun to watch, you guys are so enthusiastic, it's contagious (and I love how much you appreciated the ice cream boat, haha). Thanks for using our video 😀 Glad we could deliver on the fish and chips.

Something you may have missed was at 7:03. There was a mention of The Lifeboats or what is known as The RNLI . It is something very British . It is a fleet of specialised boats. That a stationed all around the coast . Manned by volunteers who go out to ships in difficulty usually in very bad weather to save lives . It is independent of the government and relies only on donations . It's quite a story , look it up .

Hi from Norfolk! When I was growing up in London we always used to visit Norfolk every year for our summer holiday - yes it is a tourist area, but it is a large county and there is so much to do. When I moved here my Dad suggested that I change my username to Norfolk Broad. The day boats are really easy to drive/steer - and you drive on the right! I was waiting to see whether they showed the ice-cream boat lol. I walked past Norwich Castle twice this morning without even glancing up at it, and just after the second time Natasha suddenly popped into my head saying that we take these things for granted, so I turned around to look at it.

Somewhere else to visit in Norfolk is Sandringham House, one of the Queen's residences. It's where the Queen and the royal family usually celebrate Christmas. You can tour the extensive grounds of the estate on the back of a tractor and at certain times tour the actual house.

Resident of Norfolk, the Buttlands is where archers 🏹 were supposed to practice on a Sunday, in medieval times, another Town, Aylsham also retains the land. You ask about the roof of House on the Broads, its a thatched property, using Reed and ridge finished with sedge, other parts of UK used straw for thatching.
@lynnjones4609
@lynnjones4609 2 года назад
You will find a place called Butts, possibly just as a street name, in many towns and cities because it was such an important part of life. Archery practise was mandated by law from at least the 13th century until such time as bows were overtaken in warfare by gunpowder, and other games were actually banned to make sure all the men and boys of a certain age showed up.
@grahamtravers4522
@grahamtravers4522 2 года назад
Thanks, You saved me the trouble of explaining that. The Butts were the targets for the archers to shoot at. There were usually two, set opposite each other at the correct distance for shooting. The archers would stand near one, shoot at the other one, then retrieve their arrows and shoot back at the one they had just moved from. A butt was a type of barrel, and it may be that the archery targets took their name from that. (Possibly the round ends of butts were used as targets.) There is probably also some connection with phrases such as "the butt of all jokes", i.e. the target.

Having lived in Norfolk for 14 years, I can tell you that the sunsets can be absolutely incredible. A camera cannot do justice to them.

I live in Norwich, one of the main landmarks is the Castle which is Norman and sits prominently in the centre of the city, inside is a museum and the dungeons and battlements can be viewed. Norfolk is a great holiday destination with history, coastline and beautiful countryside, so many attractions to visit. In addition Elm Hill the cobbled street in Norwich with Tudor houses has been used in many films including 'Stardust' and more recently 'Jingle Jangle'.

I have friends who live in Cromer, which is also a seaside town in Norfolk. It has it all beaches, cobblestone streets, old fishermen's cottages AND one of the best fish and chip shops I've ever eaten in. It does takeaway but there's an eat in option, where you can sit, eat your food and look out at the sea. Also they have a pier with a theatre which still puts on an old fashioned seaside variety show. It's like stepping back into the 1950's. Just a couple of miles away there's Sheringham, which is the terminus for the North Norfolk Steam Railway., with the other end being the Georgian town of Holt. Just a word of warning, many parts of Norfolk are full of weekend homes for wealthy people and a lot of those pretty villages are almost empty during the week and over the winter, plus the house prices are horrendous, with locals being priced out of the market. When I last visited my friends they took me to this shop in Holt. It was like going into Fortune and Mason, with prices to match!

I actually got a little emotional watching this one. The Norfolk Broads was my fathers favourite place on earth and as a family we must have had 15 holidays there over the years. We always rented a large boat for the week and I have so many memories of this wonderful place. The fishing is great and I learned to fish as a little kid on those broads, it ignited a passion that I still have to this day. On a nice summer day I can't think of anywhere else I'd rather be, and if the weather turns.... well at least you will have an adventure!

The truth is, unless you live at the top of Scotland or the end of Cornwall, we all live within just a couple of hours of some amazing beautiful places. When the sun's out the UK is a glorious place. Scotland and Cornwall are stunning in themselves. There are many cities like Norwich that have a mediaeval center with cobbled streets like Wells Winchester Salisbury Exeter, which usually center around the cathedral close. And there are towns like Warwick Bakewell and Whitby that seem completely locked in a different time. You can't go wrong as you'll always be close by to something amazing to see.

The UK tides can surround you in minutes and if you are caught out it can be life threatening. I live in the North West of England on the coast of Morecambe Bay and that has claimed many lives over the years. Our lifeboat is constantly out saving people. 99% of the time it is tourists who underestimate the power of the sea. The worst one was in 2004 when 21 illegal chinese immigrants drowned whilst picking cockles. When you eventually come to the UK ladies always check the tide times if you are on the beach.

So this was a nice and somewhat bittersweet vid to see as it has been about 3 years since I've visited the coast (defo this year!). Great towns to visit include: Blakeney, Downham Market, Sheringham, Cromer - to name a few and there are so many others. Norwich castle is one of my favourite places to visit - a classic Norman style keep. The cathedral is also amazing, my favourite part there are the cloisters. So many great quiet places too, where you can enjoy the peace of nature with next to no modern sounds.

The roofs you asked about were “Thatched”. The roof material is long straw which is thickly laid on the roof such that all rail water runs in a downward direction and it’s thickness gives it really good insulation. It was the almost original method to roof all houses until the 1800’s when manufactured tiles took over in the town and cities. It is now still a traditional form of country trade like basket weaving, charcoal making, horse shoeing etc. etc. Thatchers usually decorate the roofs with straw characters like pheasants. Thatching can last for years.

I'm from East Anglia (St. Ives, Huntingdonshire, now Cambridgeshire) - at 14:41, yes, that is a weeping willow. Much of East Anglia is fenland, so very wet. I remember, as a kid, digging in the garden and once you go 8-10" down, the soil changes into clay - scoop out a hollow and in a few minutes it fills with water; this is perfect for willows as they soak up enormous amounts of water. You'll find willows all over East Anglia because it's so well suited to them.

Hi, loving your content. Im born and raised on the Norfolk Coast and spent my childhood on the beaches and the broads and now live in Norwich. Elm hill is literally 2 miles down the road (interesting fact, Monty Python filmed sketches in Elm Hill and Norwich castle). Im glad you like our little corner of the world :)

Amazing old villages and shops. Flowers everywhere so want to go. Fab beaches and I want to try that pirate golf course 😁. Great Yarmouth is a holiday destination. I know lots of people who have been. Did not realise that I was missing out on so much. Thanks for doing this video Natasha and Debbie 🙏🙏

Hello! You know those long boats you thought were taxis? Now you can go live in one for a week and tour round the waterways. Now that's a relaxing vacation. You'll probably only have time to do it for a day but can't wait to see the happy video from it.

Norfolk is truly a beautiful county and has everything you could possibly want. You'd need to spend a lot of time there in order to see everything. A must see. This is also a very flat county and easy to get around. If you'd like a contrast, check out the Lake District in the county of Cumbria in the North West of England and is also known as Little Switzerland due to the numerous lakes and mountains , a must see also. You won't be disappointed.

The statue of Thomas Paine in Thetford, of whom I'm sure you are familiar, is worth a look for all Americans. It's rather good. I'm looking to move to mid-Norfolk soon. The county is mostly rural. If you ever visit, go to Grimes Graves - an ancient neolithic heritage site, not too much to look at but it is nearly 5,000 years old.

And the region made up of these two counties plus Cambridgeshire together is called East Anglia because the ‘folk’ in question were the Angles, as in the Anglo Saxons. BTW in case you didn’t get a response on one of the quirks of pronouncing English place names, places ending with wick or wich unless the W is preceded by the letters D, K or T isn’t pronounced. So lots of the English will pronounce Dionne’s last name Warrick. And they generally pronounce the town mentioned in this video Norrich. But the town on the the Kent coast used to name that snack between two pieces of bread is pronounced just as it’s spelt - SandWich. So is Dickens’ PickWick Papers and the town of NantWich. And if you want to see lots of beautiful scenery from Cornwall and further dip your toes into British TV shows tune into Poldark, an excellent series based on the novels of Winston Graham set in 18th century Cornwall and filmed on location in stunning Cornwall.

I'm so happy that you featured Norfolk. Yes it is a holiday destination but also a retirement destination. It is an expansive county with lots of beautiful walks and areas of natural beauty. I would say that a video like this can't capture the vastness of the skies which inspired artists like Constable. Another thing it can't capture is the vibe of the people. It is truly a beautiful place to be but it can also be quite narrow minded and not very diverse. For culture and diversity Norwich is the shining relief from what can be quite 'traditional'. There are so many beautiful places like Sheringham and Cromer on the North Norfolk coast but also less obvious hidden gems. Its a very dog friendly area too. Many pubs offer dog bowls of water and have areas where fog owners can sit. Because there are so many walks to take your dog!

The " Hippodrome Theatre " in Gt Yarmouth is a classic old time theatre . With steep rows of seating so where ever you sit you will see everything on the stage and seating goes right up to the edge of the stage so you feel you are part of the show . And then at the half time break in the show the centre of the stage is lowered to expose a pool where the cast will continue the show with water ballet and the actors leaping and diving . Especially during the pirate show .

I would love you to react to Cornwall at some point even if its just music (but of course narration would be better to know what you are looking at) also neighbouring Devon and Dorset are lovely counties too, looking forward to Sunday's episode.

I’ve just stumbled onto this video of Norfolk and really enjoyed it, I live in the neighbouring county of Suffolk and want to add that the names are derived from a North Folk and South Folk (bit of useless info there for you) …. My late husband and I spent many good times boating on the Norfolk Broads (we had our own 35ft river cruiser) it really is a magical place especially early in the morning when there is a slight mist over the water and you can sit on the back of the boat with your morning cup of tea or coffee and just listen to the sounds of nature …. We were friendly with a lady who ran one of the ice cream boats and she would stop off alongside our boat and have a cup of tea with us (giving us a free ice cream as a thank you). Such fond memories ❤

Norfolk is a very large county by UK standards and is like stepping back in time, mostly rural and no motorways (freeways). The Queen has a magnificent stately home at Sandringham about 10 miles west of Hunstanton. Norwich is pronounced nor-itch and is the only city in the county.

Yay, I’d forgotten it was Wednesday, this is perfect pick-me-up And well done on the spot on pronunciation of my (almost) native Nottingham! I think you’d appreciate the Nottingham pub ‘Old Trip to Jerusalem’, it’s built into the caves under Nottingham Castle and is supposed to date back to 1189 - as the castle brewhouse at least that’s probably not far off. You can travel by boat from the Broads to much of the rest of the country too (might take a while though) but the canals and rivers connect so much of the country - they were the railroads before railroads existed on that scale. Would love if you could check out the Llangollen Canal too. For any wich places just miss out the w - a bit like the northeast US pronunciation of similar places - eg Greenwich Village is how we would say the place Greenwich in London. Might have to put together a narrated tour video of my town as there aren’t any out there with narration currently.
