Welcome to Thurne

Thurne is a small village located in the county of Norfolk, England. It is situated on the River Thurne, which flows into the River Bure. The village is known for its picturesque windmill, which is a popular tourist attraction. The windmill was built in 1820 and was used to grind corn until the early 20th century. Today, it is maintained by the Norfolk Windmills Trust and is open to the public during the summer months.

Thurne is also home to a number of historic buildings, including St. Edmund's Church, which dates back to the 14th century. The church is known for its impressive tower, which stands at over 100 feet tall. The village also has a pub, The Lion Inn, which has been serving locals and visitors for over 300 years. The pub is popular with boaters who moor up on the river and stop in for a pint and a meal.

Thurne is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is a popular destination for walkers and cyclists. The village is located on the Weavers' Way, a long-distance footpath that runs through the Norfolk Broads. The Broads are a network of rivers and lakes that are home to a variety of wildlife, including otters, kingfishers, and marsh harriers. Visitors to Thurne can enjoy a peaceful stroll along the riverbank or take a boat trip to explore the waterways.
