A Postcard from Wymondham, Norfolk - 26th January 2023

A trip to Wymondham is required in order to verify some documents, so Isobel tags along and we make a few hours of it. The day includes a visit to the awesome Green Dragon - a pub which dates from 1371 - as well as the interesting Wymondham Abbey, which is a mix of Norman, 15th Century and 1920s, in the form of the stunning almost-Catholic reredos.
