Because this is not listed as a park, you don't have all the panoply of parklife-people, wandering about in parklife mode, searching for ice-cream, shrieks and swings to stoke up the rather forced machinations of familial jollity. This is a cemetery and as such is much superior to the sanitised municipal offerings of a public park. For starters, there are absolutely no dogs allowed. So you have over 80 acers of headstones, interspersed with with mature trees with no dogs or their Masters to stress the wildlife. As a consequence, hedgehogs, foxes and deer are common and birds abound. A beautiful place for parents to walk their children in peace and for adults to take a peaceful, contemplative walk. In a section devoted to the military, there is the gravestone of Captain G.W.V. Clements, who died on the Western Front in March 1916 aged 85. A carpenter's son from Norwich, he joined the army aged 15 in 1846 and fought in the Crimea. At 85, he is the oldest soldier to have died serving with the British Army. In contrast, on the monument close by, there is inscribed the name of Harry Connors, a Norfolk drummer boy, killed aged 15.
Lovely, quiet place. My Sister was cremated and her Ashes were buried here. She loved the peace and quiet of the countryside, so we think she would 've loved being here. The Staff were so helpful and so friendly, too.
As others have said this is a park with a lot of statues in all but name. You would probably have to travel some distance to find an arra with such a variety of specimen trees in one space. Tranquil and walker friendly with the occasional meandering path as though the grass mower took off one day on a mad flight of fancy of its own. In the older, Eastern side of the cemetary you may come across an old bench among the trees dedicated to an RAF war hero, Flight Lieutenant John McMahon, 1922-1949, who survived his years as a pilot in the war only to be tragically killed as a police constable just 4 years later.
A beautiful and expansive cemetary that's very peaceful - great for a solitude walk. It's the right amount of wild and cared for with some beautiful wild flowers and trees. Considering its by lots of busy roads it is very quiet. Also home to a couple of mount jack! Lovely to explore
A lovely quiet place to come. The cemetery has 80 acres, 2/3s of which conservation areas that supports different types of wildlife mostly squirrels but some deer too & if you're lucky you'll see some! Beautiful natural grounds with a wide range of monoliths, headstones kerbsets and the odd oblisque too. Dating back to 1856 it's really worth a walk around.
Quiet and peaceful. A great place for a Sunday afternoon stroll. Even the kids enjoy it as there are plenty of interesting things to look at and places to explore.
its really quite lovely but a stark warning, do not walk through the main road part during daytime use the side walks as you may have to do an awkward walk through an ongoing funeral
Is this place called or was called Norwich Outer ? I am looking for a family member died in the 50's is there a help line to find the grave - Photo shows a headstone
Very nice to wander through.
