Overview

Starting from Thornham Harbour, we walk south, crossing the coast road, and ascending to a ridge with fine views over the North Sea as we walk in a westerly direction along the old county road. Turning north we descend on a track to enter Holme village and pause at the church. We then cross a nature reserve heading to the coastal path which we follow back to Thornham Harbour, with fine coastal views, passing the site of the Bronze Age timber circle known as Seahenge
