Picture 24 - Corner of Horsey Staithe.

CORNER OF HORSEY STAITHE. Not far from Heigham Staithe, to which the refreshing odours of the sea is borne on the breeze, is wee but charmingly picturesque Horsey beloved of anglers with Palling beyond, where the ruins of Eccles Church, half buried in the sand, are visible; while near by is shallow Martham. This last Broad is one of the least known in Norfolk, as it lies away by itself near the source of the Thurne. Craft drawing more than three feet of water cannot get up to it, so it is but little frequented. Patient anglers often disport themselves in one of the pretty, secluded nooks hereabouts.
