Summary[edit]

Description
English: Stile on circular walk The stile takes the circular walk onto higher and drier ground. The path beyond skirts the stockfence in both directions but the say back to Surlingham leads in southerly direction (right).

Leading in northerly direction past the church the path descends to the Surlingham Landspring Main Sluice > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285128. A boardwalk has been built along sections of path > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285135 which here runs parallel with a drain > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285139 which empties into the River Yare > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285145. The path follows the Wherrymans Way which here runs parallel with the river > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285169 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285201 in northerly direction, leading past Surlingham Church Marsh Nature Reserve > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285247.

The path follows a drain which separates in from reed beds > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285309 but soon ascends towards higher, drier ground and pastureland. Here it skirts a stockfence surrounding a cattle pasture, turning in southerly direction, passing the Norwich & District Parabellum and Fullbore Club > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285342 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1285363 before reaching the peaceful ruins of St Saviour's church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1280780.

The last section of path leads past St Mary's churchyard > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1280716 and the flint and brick cottage > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1280708 where it started.

The Wherrymans Way is a 35-mile long distance footpath following the route of the Broads trading wherries between Norwich and Great Yarmouth. The route takes its name from the wherry – a large cargo-carrying barge whose black sails used to be a common sight on these waters. Ten circular village walks branch off this path along the way.
