3rd order cut benchmark on St Mary's church tower, Martham.
"The tower at a height of 100ft is reached by well over 100 steps, with a small spirelet on top and a clock on the south face. It has a ring of six bells which were restored and re-hung in 2000 as part of the millennium project. The present church which was built between about 1377 and 1450, is a fine example of early perpendicular architecture including a hammerbeam roof with 11 pairs of carved angels. It replaced an older round-towered church, the footings of which were discovered in 1999."
