THE TIVETSHALLS
Set amid the gently undulating fields of South Norfolk are the twin villages of Tivetshall St Mary and Tivetshall St Margaret. Just ten miles south of Norwich, this idyllic corner of the countryside offers a life removed from the hurry of the city, where winding lanes, ancient hedgerows, and open skies shape the rhythm of daily life. Though rural in character, the villages remain well connected by the A140, providing the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility. Tivetshall St Mary is anchored by its Grade 1 listed 14th-century church. Surrounding the church, the village unfolds in a mix of handsome brick and flint cottages, lovingly maintained period homes, and tasteful modern dwellings, each framed by fields. A short lane northward leads to Tivetshall St Margaret, a natural complement to its sister village. Here, too, history is deeply embedded, most strikingly in the bold silhouette of St Margaret’s Church, a Grade II* listed gem renowned for its stained glass and proud tower rising above the treetops. Though tranquil, the Tivetshalls are far from isolated. The Crown Inn in St Mary offers a warm, familiar welcome with its log fires, local ales, and classic pub fare, a favourite among locals and visitors alike. In St Margaret, The White Horse serves as another hub of village life, with its relaxed atmosphere and wholesome British menu providing the perfect stop after a countryside ramble.
