Picture 07 - Wroxham Broad.

WROXHAM BROAD. For yachts of the larger size this Broad is undoubtedly one of the finest, having an area of over 100 acres, and navigable in every part for sailing. It presents a most animated spectacle in summer-time, especially at the annual water carnival, when the Broad is covered with craft of every variety. As the exhilaration and excitement of racing subsides, the pleasure of eventide commences. Sweet music discoursed from this quarter, or the rendering of a Venetian love song from another, floats dreamily o’er the water, the listener meanwhile being so enchanted as to lose both sense of time and locality.
