Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Earthworks in field east of Shouldham This view was taken looking west from All Saints church.
The village of Shouldham is situated about 10 kilometres north-east of Downham Market (South West Norfolk) and has a population of approximately 500. Immediately to the east and north-east of the village, on the south side of the Nar valley bottom which used to be a fen in medieval times, lies the site of the Priory of the Holy Cross and the Blessed Virgin. This site is a designated National Monument and contains the buried remains of monastic buildings, earthwork enclosures and remains of an extensive water management system including fishponds. The site can be accessed via the public footpath turning off Eastgate Street and leading to Marham, further to the east, which traverses it. Found within the same area there are also remains of a section of road which is believed to date from Roman times, and a Bronze Age cremation cemetery. For more information see: http://www.magic.gov.uk/rsm/21335.pdf. The church of All Saints > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1738436 stands on an elevation above the site, looking down onto the village. |
