Wayside Cross, Church Road, Aylmerton This is a medieval cross, but was restored in the 19C, when it appears that most of the shaft and all the head were renewed. The road to the right is Church Road, leading to Aylmerton village, and the track half-left is a byway leading to East Beckham.

Footpath past Felbrigg Pond. The woodland seen in the background is Common Plantation. The history of Felbrigg estate dates back to the middle ages, when a member of the Norman family of Bigod took the name Felbrigg and built a manor house on the site of the present Hall, in the early 15th century. In around 1450 Felbrigg was acquired by John Wyndham, a wealthy merchant from the Norfolk town of Wymondham. The manor house was altered and added on to by following generations until a family member, "Mad Windham", almost ruined the estate and was forced to sell it in 1863, with all its contents. The estate was purchased by John Ketton, a Norwich merchant, whose daughter married a distant cousin of "Mad Windham". Their grandson, Robert Wyndham Ketton-Cremer (d. 1969) bequeathed the Felbrigg Hall and estate to the National Trust. See > 724631 for view of Felbrigg Hall.
