Thetford is a historic and sought-after market town, once the ancient capital of East Anglia and rich with heritage dating back thousands of years.Its fascinating history includes being a royal residence in the Anglo-Saxon period, and today its streets still echo with that legacy—home to the ruins of Thetford Priory, a 15th-century bridge, and the impressive statue of Boudica, the legendary warrior queen who was born nearby.Modern-day Thetford offers excellent connectivity, with trains running twice hourly to Norwich and London, and hourly to Cambridge and Peterborough. The A11 makes for easy journeys by car to Bury St Edmunds (15 miles) and Norwich (25 miles), while the dual carriageway links to the A14 for Cambridge and Newmarket.Residents enjoy a wide range of amenities, including good schools, a twice-weekly market, and access to nature on their doorstep. Thetford Forest is just minutes away, a haven for wildlife with endless miles of walks, activities including Go Ape, and picnic areas. It is also a popular location for performances by international music acts.Norwich, just over 30 minutes away, adds further appeal with its vibrant culture, medieval streets and independent spirit—ideal for days out. But it’s Thetford’s unique position in East Anglian history, combined with its community feel and surrounding countryside, that truly make it a special place to call home.SERVICES CONNECTED
