Norfolk

Norfolk is an eastern maritime ceremonial county of England, lies North of Suffolk, and presents a long eastern and northern foreshore (90 miles) to the German Ocean. The Wash lies on the North-West border. Light fertile soils, and an undulating, well-watered surface favour an extensive and highly developed agriculture, of which fruit-growing and market-gardening are special features. Rabbits and game abound in the great woods and sand-dunes. The chief rivers are the Ouse, Bure, and Yare, and these and other streams form in their courses a remarkable series of inland lakes known as the Broads. Its antiquities of Roman and Saxon times are many and peculiarly interesting.
