Nice little stop with a place to rest your legs in the shallow river.
2 x pubs nearby with the Black Swan and Wortwell Bell

Quite a nice place to get in to the water if you have a plastic canoe as the water is shallow. The Black Swan pub or The Dirty Duck as its known by the locals is a stones throw away too and a quite excellent pub

Hiking

The oldest concrete bridge in Great Britain, Homersfield bridge has one foot in Suffolk and one in Norfolk as it crosses the River Waveney. A grade II listed structure, this charming span is a lovely place to pause and admire the river and it chuckles along its wandering path.

Built in 1869, it’s made of concrete and has a wrought iron frame within. It was restored in the 90s and now hosts only foot and bike traffic.
