Burgh Castle is located only a few miles from Great Yarmouth, on the south side of Breydon Water. It overlooks the rivers Yare and Waveney and it is on this strategic position that the Romans built a fort to protect their colony from attackers. The ruins of this massive fort remain today and are one of Britain's best preserved examples of Roman occupation of these islands. About 300 hundred years later, an Irish missionary named Fursey, established a monastery within the ruins of the Roman fort. He eventually left East Anglia to setup another Monastery in France and a few years later attempted to return to Burgh Castle to see what had become of his monastery here, only to die on route. The monastery he founded at Burgh Castle survived until the middle of the 7th century when many of the monks were killed when attacked. Nothing remains of the monastery, but one of the windows in the lovely parish church of St Peter & St Paul is dedicated to St Fursey. The church also has a round Saxo-Norman tower dating back to the 11th century. It would be wrong though to simply think of Burgh Castle as a history lesson, because it's best feature can be seen today - the view over the River Yare and Waveney, with the Berney Arms windmill in the centre of the view. Paths lead from the village to the Roman Fort and down along the riverbank, making it a great place to enjoy some fresh air, see some wildlife and at the end of your visit perhaps enjoy a pub lunch!

If you love history you can visit the Roman fort at Burgh Castle. It overlooks the Norfolk Broads and marshes.
The best place in Norfolk to sit in acres of grass overlooking the broads and watch the sun go down. Just bring your picnic basket and discover the history of Roman Norfolk, sitting within the imposing castle ruins. Less than half an hour's drive from Point House, well worth a visit for a relaxing and interesting evening.
