Burgh Castle, Norfolk

English Heritage.
This is a Roman “Saxon Shore” fort in countryside near Yarmouth, and close to the River Waveney. Three walls and various towers stand to near their original height, the fourth wall having collapsed into the river centuries ago.
Both the size of the site and the degree of preservation of the wall and towers are quite impressive. It’s worth seeking it out if you are in the area. There is no charge for visiting. Visitors should find somewhere to park near the church, and follow the signed footpath.
