Banham Zoo
Banham Zoo is set amongst 35 acres of beautiful parkland and gardens with innovative and exciting enclosures, providing sanctuary for almost 1000 animals ranging from big cats to birds of prey and siamangs to shire horses.
Norfolk Shirehorse Centre
This centre brings together a collection of different breeds of draft horses. Some originated in this country and some are European breeds. The shire horses are complemented with a number of breeds of ponies which are native to the UK, and some have foals which are also on display. Visitors can watch the horses working as they used to in days-gone-by.
Elizabethan House Museum
A 16th-century building with rooms displayed to reflect the lives of the families who have lived here through history. Of particular interest are a Tudor bedroom and dining-room, Victorian kitchen, scullery and parlour, and the Conspiracy Room, where the trial and execution of King Charles I were allegedly plotted. There is also a special children’s room with replica toys and there are hands-on activities throughout the house. (Leased to the Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service).
