About

Gresham ward encompasses a cluster of rural villages set within the agricultural landscape of North Norfolk. The area is primarily defined by farmland and scattered settlements, with the historic market town of Holt lying just to the south. The local geography includes gentle valleys and areas of woodland, contributing to a quiet, pastoral character.

These substantial remains, including a moat and gatehouse, sit within the village, directly integrated into the community. The surrounding lanes connect to smaller hamlets and farms, with land use dominated by arable fields and some livestock pasture, typical of the broader north Norfolk countryside.
