Oak Tree, Bradfield Common, Bradfield, North Walsham, NR28 0QR

This property is located in Bradfield, a village within the North Norfolk district, offering a quiet, countryside setting.

Bradfield, Norfolk, is a village and former civil parish that is now part of the parish of Swafield in the North Norfolk district of the English county of Norfolk. It lies within the postal district NR 28. The North Walsham and Dilham Canal, a waterway authorised by Parliament in 1812 and constructed from 1825, runs through the region. The canal, 8.7 miles (14.0 km) long, connected bone mills at Antingham to a junction with the River Ant at Smallburgh, and included six locks designed for wherries. It transported offal for the bone mills and agricultural products, proving cheaper to land coal on the beach at Mundesley and cart it overland rather than use the canal. The canal’s historical significance and the village’s rural setting suggest a quiet, pastoral environment with a link to the region’s maritime and agricultural heritage.
