Grade II*

St Peter's Church has one of the oldest round towers in Norfolk. Dating to the 11th century and containing much re used Roman building material, St Peter’s stands isolated on a disused World War Two airfield, once the parkland of Haveringland Hall. The rest of the church, including the top of the tower, was rebuilt in 1858 and consists of an aisled nave, chancel, and north and south transepts. The interior mostly dates from the 19th century, however the font dates to the 15th century.

The Ten Towers Trail

Ten church towers along a 15 mile route? It is Norfolk after all, and we are lucky to have beautiful churches in abundance. This route has it all - massive Perpendicular square towers, delicate Norman round towers and Victorian 'gothick' pastiche towers. Not to mention, two church buildings in one churchyard, a seven sacrament font, an angel roof and medieval stained glass. The starting point is St Peter's Church in Haveringland and there is parking along the north side of the hard standing near the church, marked by signs. The walk is easy to moderate and takes in a mixture of quiet and busier country lanes, and field and woodland footpaths. If you want to stop off for some well deserved refreshments, there are tea shops and pubs in Cawston and Reepham. Toilets can be found at St Peter's Church, Cawston Village Hall and in Reepham off the marketplace.
