Castle
Acre. Norfolk
My pal Ernie and myself visited this village
during October 2006.
It was a pretty dull, chilly day but set out
to explore the area.
We first discovered the Castle ruins. Huge
earthworks and solid walls remain.
It was built in the 13th century.
Founded in 1090 is the magnificent ruin of a Cluniac Priory. The
perpendicular style St James Church dates back to the1300’s. The
Ostrich Inn an 18th century coaching inn is very popular
with walkers as the travel ‘The Peddars Way’ A well known pre Roman
track.
