Location

Mill Road is a quiet country lane situated in the rural village of Edingthorpe, located in the heart of North Norfolk, approximately 2 miles inland from the North Sea coast and 3 miles north-east of North Walsham. The road meanders through a predominantly agricultural landscape, dotted with traditional Norfolk cottages and mature hedgerows, offering a peaceful setting with views over open fields and easy access to nearby countryside walks, including those around the historic All Saints Church.

While Edingthorpe itself is a small, scattered village without its own shop or school, essential amenities are conveniently located in the nearby towns and villages. The closest shops, including supermarkets, convenience stores, pharmacies, and cafés, can be found in North Walsham, a short 5 to 10-minute drive away. For education, local children typically attend Bacton Primary School, just under 2 miles to the east, or Mundesley Junior and Infant Schools, both also within a 10-minute drive. North Walsham High School serves as the main secondary option for the area.

Transport links, while rural, remain accessible. Though there is no direct public bus through Mill Road, a community Dial-a-Ride service offers scheduled transport to and from North Walsham. For broader travel, North Walsham railway station, on the Bittern Line, provides direct train services to Norwich and Cromer, making commuting or leisure travel manageable. Road access to the A149 and A140 connects the village to larger road networks, and Norwich International Airport is approximately 40 minutes away by car.
