This old railway line is now named Marriott's Way after William Marriott, who was the Engineer and Traffic Manager for the Midland & Great Northern Joint Railway in the late 1800s.

The route is tree-lined and in spring and summer there are many wildflowers to be seen, such as black medick, gorse, broom, hawkweed and red and white campion and butterflies including red admiral and speckled wood.

The route takes you into the small Georgian market town of Reepham, where in the past many a TV series has been filmed, such as Agatha Christie's 'Poirot' and the 'Dalgleish' detective series.

A terrific walk along sections of Marriott's Way and nicely complimented by a little tour of Reepham. Marriott's Way is very well maintained and easy walking in the main. All instructions good bar 13, Fishers Alley is to the right of the butchers, if you go along the alley between the butcher and chemist you will find yourself in a dead end.
