Index of churches
If there is a particular church or ruin you are interested in you can use this index to find the link to the relevant walk or occasion of my visit. Note that only churches I have visited are included.
Key
I have included the following designations for churches of special interest. Of course, nearly every Norfolk church is of at least some architectural, cultural, historical or spiritual significance, and these designations (with the exception of redundant) are purely subjective.
A Architectural
C Cultural
H Historical
R Redundant
S Spiritual
I have also indicated whether churches are normally open to visitors and pilgrims. Note that these are based on the date of my visit (mainly spring/summer 2024), and more up-to-date information may be found from other sources.
O Normally open
L Normally locked outside services
