Burnham Thorpe, Norfolk

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A small village on the north Norfolk coast, Burnham Thorpe is known as the birthplace of Admiral Horatio Nelson, victor of the Battle of Trafalgar. Nelson was born in the old rectory (now demolished), and a plaque commemorates the site. A memorial to Nelson's father stands in All Saints church. Just outside the village are the ruins of 12th century Creake Abbey. The stately home of Holkham Hall is only a few miles distant.
