Travel Guide

St Martin's Church. St Martin's church > 1394686 was designed and built in one piece by architect Thomas Aldrych in the mid 15th century, using limestone in combination with knapped flint for the flushwork decoration. The south aisle was restored and enlarged in the 16th century when the roof height was raised. The present chancel was restored by Norwich architect Edward Boardman in Victorian times. The east window, which contains Kempe glass, was installed at the same time. The reredos > 1394692 is by H.B. Walters and dates from 1906. It is believed that the Easter Sepulchre > 1394691 once contained the remains of Alice Knyvet and the indent of a brass depicting a woman in prayer remains on the back wall of the tomb recess. The octagonal font bowl > 1394706 - it is dated 'Feb 1 1617' and inscribed with the name of the churchwardens - rests on a medieval shaft which is decorated with four lions, alternating with wild men. Four of the doors > 1394682 are original and several 15th century poppy-headed benches have survived in the nave. The church is open every day.

The Grange. This house is part of The Grange which adjoins St Martin's church > 1394594 in the north. New Buckenham is a village located on the Norfolk-Suffolk border. Interestingly, its street plan is still based on the old medieval grid pattern. 16th century houses, built from wattle and clay on timber frames, stand side by side with flint and brick cottages, often hidden behind Georgian and later brick facades > 1394567. The 18th century market cross, situated in the village centre, serves as a shelter > 40538. The village has two pubs, the George > 1394575 and the Kings Head, a number of local shops and a general store which is combined with a bakery and a post office > 1394579. There is a large common designated a Conservation Area to the east of the village. The remains of a castle are on the edge of the village, and near it there is the first place of worship, the now restored St Mary's Chapel, which was replaced by St Martin's church > 1394594.
