Nearly opposite the White Horse you can see the newly refurbished Waterside Village
Immediately to your left is the Vicarage
Carrying on down The Street, straight ahead of you is Bakers Score.  Holiday accommodation is available here at  Wy Wurry 01502 730427 and The Rising Sun 01502 730945
Waveney District Council have improved the far end of Bakers Score.  Seats have been provided by WDC and the Parish Council who also provided a picnic table with money raised through a grant and with donations made by local residents and businesses.  Coastal protection works have been carried out to make the coastline safe for the next twenty years
Walk back up Bakers Score and turn right onto Church Lane.  Allotments are on the left hand side.  Continue walking although there are no paths here, round the bend you can see St Bartholomew's Church and Church Farm in the distance
There is a long stretch of road with a sharp bend just before you come to St Bartholomew's Church.  Please take care!  During the summer months the church is often open for strawberries, tea and if you're lucky, delicious cakes.  These are all fundraising events held to raise money for the upkeep of the church.
Past the church is Stirrups Lane where you can see the new technology of Anglian Water's  Waste Water Treatment Centre - Technology at its best.
Turning left just past the old railway bridge you can walk alongside the waste water treatment centre into Box Iron Wood
Walk through the lovely wood setting and you come out at the back of Manor Park Road/Wheatacre Drive where the old railway line used to be
Walk up past Gladstone Road until you come to Station Road where immediately opposite is a children's play area known locally as The Pit.  At the present time there is a group known as The Pitfits who are trying to raise money to improve this area for the children 
Now you are back on Station Road, head south (to your right!) and you will see the Old Post Office which closed its doors in 2003
On the right hand side, just past the little bungalow on the corner of Wheatacre Drive, you can see the road that leads down to the old railway station.
Carry on walking down Station Road and turn left, leading you onto Corton Long Lane.  Continue walking to the end of this road and you are back to the start of the tour
