This glorious walk takes you across wide open fields past churches, through pretty villages and on to Weaver Way.

Alby Tearooms
Alby Village is dissected in two by the A140, the main Norwich to Cromer road. Located on this road is Alby Crafts and Gardens.

There is also a gift shop, museum and of course, Carole Ingrams Tea-room. Here we enjoyed tea and home-made cakes sitting outside in the sunshine. There is a large free car-park and a four-acre Plantsman's Garden to visit. There is a small admissions charge to visit the Gardens.

Tearoom telephone number is: 01263 768719
Hours of opening: 1000 - 1700 Tuesday to Sunday, Mid March to Mid December. Weekends only Mid January to Mid March.

Starting Point: Alby Crafts car park

The Walk: Leave the car park and turn left walking past the front of the Horseshoes Public House immediately turning left at the finger post there. Continue along this footpath between houses to the metal lane.

Turn right at the Public footpath sign walking straight ahead crossing two fields. Maintain direction towards the farm building across a wide concrete area with a barn on the left and onto a country lane to reach the Church.

St Ethelbert Chuch Alby, unfortunately locked, is nestles within trees and wild flowers with a peacefully sited cemetery to the left of it.
