Set in two acres of delightful gardens, the property also includes a studio/annexe which provides a useful income, a triple garage, swimming pool and the opportunity to enjoy a mile of fishing on the river. Enjoying a south facing aspect, Stonebridge House is constructed of brick and flint circa 1930, with later extensions and additions. There are light and airy rooms throughout, with well arranged accommodation suited to family life. An entrance hall feeds all the main rooms including the drawing room with open fireplace, dining room, sitting room with wood burner and the spacious kitchen/breakfast room. There is a wonderful sun room accessed from the dining room, with French doors out to a southwest facing terrace perfect for outside dining, a study and useful rooms such as a utility and boot room. On the first floor, and centred around a large landing, are six bedrooms and two bathrooms including a master bedroom with en-suite bathroom. The bedrooms to the front and side of the house have fine views of the river valley. Studio/Annexe To the northeast of the house is the detached studio/annexe, comprising a sitting room/bedroom, bathroom, store and kitchen with door out to a private garden. The studio/annexe provides a useful income as a holiday let or can simply be used for overspill guest accommodation. Outside Stonebridge House is approached through a wooden five bar gate set between picket fencing, with the drive sweeping up to the house and parking area adjoining the garaging and studio/annexe. The main lawns are to the south of the house, stretching away to the banks of the River Glaven with a fine view of the river valley and Wiveton’s bridge, built circa 1310. Also to the south is a willow plantation on the rivers edge. Adjoining the house, and accessed from the sun room, is a delightful south facing terrace, framed by box hedging and raised herbaceous beds and perfect for outside dining. The heated swimming pool is to the east of the house, set behind an established beech hedge and enclosed with mixed hedging and well stocked herbaceous beds and lawned area. The mature gardens continue around the house, with an assortment of shrubs and flowerbeds, with a path up hill to the kitchen garden of raised beds within a fruit cage, and with fantastic views over the Glaven Valley to the south. There is a pedestrian gate from this area out to Bridgefoot Lane with a short walk to the reowned Wiveton Bell gastro pub. Attached to the garage is a lean-to boat shed and storage area, with a further detached outbuilding close by. Situation Wiveton is one of the most unspoilt villages along the famous North Norfolk coast, known for its attractive brick and flint houses, impressive church and the popular gastro public house, The Wiveton Bell.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ilBSTRAGT The Cromer Moraine forms a distinctive geographical region near the coast of the northern part of the County of Norfolk. A pro­ nounced characteristic of this region is the vridespread cover of heatb-land, far less extensive than in former times. This heathland appears in its turn to have developed from an original woodland cover which was destroyed by the depredations of man and his domesticated animals . It has been necessary first to delimit the region as accurately as possible and this has been accomplished by means of a detailed study of local topography and of well-sections. The earliest evidence of the location of heathland comes from tlie Domesday Survey and this has been confirmed by references to heathland in various other documents dovm to 1750. By the middle of the eighteenth century the new developments in agriculture^ or ’Norfolk Husbandry’ as it was called, became widely known and practised, resulting in this region in a greatly accelerated reclama­ tion of heathland; so that by the time of the Tithe Survey (183S-42) less than a hundred years later over 4000 acres of heath had been reclaimed.

  • River Glaven Walk Get
    Get to know your local chalk river this summer Come and join the River Glaven Conservation Group on a short walk to look at the River Glaven on the Bayfield estate, one of the few globally rare chalk streams. The chalk gives the river its unique character and ecology, with mineral rich clear water ideal for invertebrates and rich plant life. We will be looking at a brand new stretch of river on the Bayfield estate to see how this has improved functioning of the river Glaven and created ecological benefits. We will also enjoy a walk through surrounding farmland before returning to Natural Surroundings where you can purchase refreshments from the excellent cafe. River Glaven walk Saturday the 23rd May 2015 10am To 11:30am Meet at Natural Surroundings, Glandford near Holt (follow signs for wildflower centre), Norfolk, NR25 7JN www.naturalsurroundings.info The walk is free but booking is required so hurry as places are limited.

  • THE GLAVEN RIVER CATCHMENT Links Between Geodiversity and Landscape
    THE GLAVEN RIVER CATCHMENT Links between geodiversity and landscape - A resource for educational and outreach work - Tim Holt-Wilson Norfolk Geodiversity Partnership CONTENTS 1.0 Introduction 2.0 Landscape Portrait 3.0 Features to visit 4.0 Local Details 5.0 Resources 1.0 INTRODUCTION The River Glaven is partly a chalk river, of which there are more in England than any other country in the world. Chalk rivers are fed from groundwater sources in chalk bedrock, producing clear waters. Many of them have ‘winterbourne’ stretches in their headwaters, with intermittent or absent flow in summer. They have characteristic plant communities, and their gravelly beds, clear waters and rich invertebrate life support important populations of brown trout, salmon and other fish. The Stiffkey is a notable example of a chalk river in north Norfolk, and is classified as one between Edgefield Bridge (TG085363) and Glandford Bridge (TG045415). This report explains the links between geodiversity and the biological and cultural character of the river catchment. It provides a digest of information for education and interpretive outreach about this precious natural resource. Some specialist words are marked in blue and appear in the Glossary (section 5). 2.0 LANDSCAPE PORTRAIT 2.1 Topography and geology The River Glaven is a river in north Norfolk with a length of 17 km (11 miles). Its catchment drains an area of some 115 sq km, with its headwaters in the uplands of the Cromer Ridge. It is fed by several tributaries, including the Thornage Beck and Water Lane Beck, among other spring-fed sources; there are no tributaries in the lower reaches where it flows directly over chalk bedrock.

  • Delineation of the MIKE 11 River Glaven Channel and Location of Cross-Sections
    HYDROECOLOGICAL MONITORING AND MODELLING OF RIVER-FLOODPLAIN RESTORATION IN A UK LOWLAND RIVER MEADOW By Hannah Marie Clilverd UCL A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 SIGNED DECLARATION I, Hannah Marie Clilverd confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 ABSTRACT Channelization and embankment of rivers has led to major ecological degradation of aquatic habitats worldwide. River restoration can be used to restore favourable hydrological conditions for target processes or species. This study is based on rarely available, detailed pre- and post-restoration hydrological data collected from 2007–2010 from a wet grassland meadow in Norfolk, UK. Based on these data, coupled hydrological/hydraulic models were developed of pre-embankment and post-embankment conditions using the MIKE-SHE/MIKE-11 system. Fine-scale plant and chemical sampling was conducted on the floodplain meadow to assess the spatial pattern of plant communities in relation to soil physicochemical conditions. Simulated groundwater levels for a 10-year period were then used to predict changes in plant community composition following embankment-removal. Hydrology was identified as the primary driver of plant community composition, while soil fertility was also important. Embankment removal resulted in widespread floodplain inundation at high river flows and frequent localised flooding at the river edge at lower flows. Subsequently, groundwater levels were higher and subsurface storage was greater. The restoration had a moderate effect on flood-peak attenuation and improved free drainage to the river.
