Hickling Norfolk Map

About Hickling

Hickling breathes the quietude of the Norfolk Broads, a place where waterways become thoroughfares and the land lies low. It lies 4.1 km east-south-east of Stalham (from Stalham: bearing 116°T, OS grid TG 410 234), and is situated east of Sutton village. The village itself, a scattering of flint-walled cottages and homes, reflects the agricultural heart that has long sustained it, its fields stretching out under a sky that often seems to hold a particular, luminous quality. Dominating the local scene is the imposing bulk of St. Luke's Church, its tower a landmark against the horizon, a silent witness to centuries of village life. Hickling Broad, a significant expanse of water, draws a different kind of visitor, one seeking the hushed peace of reed beds and the darting flight of marsh harriers. The very air here seems to carry the scent of water reeds and damp earth, a constant reminder of the unique watery landscape that defines this corner of Norfolk.
