Picture 45 - Buckenham Ferry.

BUCKENHAM FERRY. A short distance from Coldham Hall lies this well-known Ferry, a favourite angling centre, standing on the right bank of the river Bure; it is between ten and eleven miles from Norwich, and is much frequented by disciples of the rod and line. Fishing boats and pleasure craft are procurable, and the fishing is pronounced good. The nearest railway station, which rejoices in the same name, is about ten minutes’ walk from the Ferry. The river from here to Langley Dyke, some two miles or so, where the principal regattas are held, becomes very wide and deep, while the shoals near the banks, which abound in the higher reaches, are not so frequent.
