Old Lakenham Norfolk Map

About Old Lakenham

Old Lakenham unfurls as a quiet testament to Norfolk's enduring spirit. It lies 2.6 km south of Norwich (from Norwich: bearing 177°T, OS grid TG 232 059), and is situated west-south-west of Trowse Newton village. Here, the land slopes gently towards the River Yare, a subtle undulation that has shaped the character of Old Lakenham for generations, catching the soft, diffused light that is so characteristic of the eastern counties. The houses, a mix of brick and flint, seem to absorb this light, their gardens often bursting with an almost defiant abundance of roses and hollyhocks, a quiet riot against the muted tones of the sky. Though its history is rooted in the agricultural rhythms of the countryside, Old Lakenham now hums with a more modern cadence, a place where the echoes of older ways mingle with the present. The air itself seems to carry a certain stillness, a contemplative quality that invites one to pause and observe the way the shadows lengthen across the well-tended lawns.
