Shouldham Warren

Shouldham Warren is a wooded area on the edge of the fens, located a short distance to the north of the village of Shouldham with a track to the parking and picnic area. The undulating site is traversed by numerous unmarked paths as well as by two marked walks: the Yellow walk (1 kilometer) and the Red walk (a good 3 kilometers), offering good views across the open fenland. Much of the northern part, which slopes upwards towards a central plateau, is covered by conifers, some of which has recently been cleared. A deep ditch cross-able only in three places - separates the northern from the southern parts of the woodland. Remnants of an historic spring on top of the hill are indicated by a Rhododendron Avenue. Good Autumn colors. At the Black Drain good views over Tall Herb Fen to the North across the River Nar.

This church was extensively rebuilt about 1450 with all the grandeur of the Perpendicular period. It is on the exact site of the earlier St. Martin’s Church and partly on the original walls. The famous Norman font here came from a second church in this village, called St. Michael’s Church, which was pulled down in 1744.

A tiny thatched church with medieval paintings and Norman carving. The church of St Mary's is idyllic and it has a wonderfully still, white simplicity. Rising from a tall-grassed churchyard, it has aged walls, the color of pale honey, under a mellow thatched roof.
