A lovely Norfolk village with this small ford by the village green
South Creake is a village in Norfolk, tucked into the valley of the little river Burn. Its heart is the Green and playing field beside the river and the B1355 road, where both run towards the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty along the North Norfolk Coast.
The large mediaeval church beloved of Sir John Betjeman among others, is a sign of the earlier wealth and size of the village. Other hints of the past include the Iron Age fort on Bloodgate Hill and the tiny Saxon church at Waterden.
