About

The Coltishall, Buxton and Frettenham area sits in Broadland, north of Norwich, where the River Bure threads through low-lying fen and pasture. Coltishall occupies a riverside position with private moorings and boat access to the Broads; the runways and control tower of the former RAF Coltishall lie just beyond the village edge and remain a clear landmark on the skyline. Drainage channels, reed carr and willow-lined banks shape how land and settlement meet the river, and a network of public footpaths follows old river courses and field boundaries.

Buxton lies a short distance along the Bure, historically linked with Lamas, where small bridges and riverside meadows give way to lanes that lead back into open country. Frettenham stands a little to the west amid arable fields and hedgerows, its village green and parish routes providing local focal points. Daily life moves around village halls, pubs and small shops, with river moorings, farm tracks and designated walks used for short excursions rather than long-distance tourism.
