Hi Simon - terrible to hear of the damage to the church ruin of Croxton - such a shame that places like this often don’t get the respect they deserve. Saxlingham Thorpe is correct rather than Saxlingham Nethergate - typing error there which I was aware of some time ago but unable to correct once the video has gone live sadly. Thanks for tuning in

It is a shame more of these historic places aren’t cherished. Parts of the old city walls still stand in areas, but despite being in decline the section around Carrow Hill is still spectacular. The air raid shelter featured in the video is located near to the cathedral and is sometimes part of the Norfolk Heritage Open Days held every September 🙂

Hi Sandra - hopefully you enjoyed the video as Dunwich clearly has close connections for you - thanks for commenting 🙂

Hi - it is a devastating shame to lose such an iconic building in such a manner. The top floor was in remarkably good condition - I think it was saved by the fact the staircase was removed many years ago so explorers were never able to gain access so easily. I think there was possibly a basement / cellars underneath too but these probably got filled with rubble after the building was sadly demolished

Hi Rob - you never know - it maybe worth researching - this particular pit isn’t widely known and only those local to the area who have lived here for a long time are aware of it - cheers for commenting 🙂

Thank-you it was quite a spectacle 🙂 - do you ever get displays like this in Australia? Or is the climate too warm for them?

@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk not of poppies but of the yellow canola flowers also pretty but I think the poppies were more striking

Thank-you for commenting - it is quite rare to be able to gain access into a church crypt these days and this specific one has quite a dark history

Thank-you Peter appreciate the comments - it is fascinating to think there is a hidden street beneath our feet that many won’t be aware of when walking past Norwich Castle 🏰 🙂

Thanks for commenting - the noise was quite strange as the church is so isolated - I can’t say for sure it was paranormal but it was interesting - I was pleased I was filming at the time to capture the sound as it only happened the one time - it is a fascinating church and I was pleased to be able to see the inside - it is quite rare to be able to see directly into the crypt too

Hi thank-you - it catches the eye just off Lynn Lane Great Massingham

Thank you ​@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk

Hi Sylvia - thanks for commenting - I was taken aback when visiting this poppy field - it is absolutely stunning - nature at its best - pleased you enjoyed the video 🙂

Hi Kathy thanks so much for the kind words - hopefully your granddaughter enjoys the poppy field and Hollie too - although no ghosts in this one 👻

Hi 🙂 - this poppy field is the best example I’ve ever seen - they are sadly becoming an increasingly rare sight these days so visiting here was quite a treat

Thanks Keith - the video doesn’t do justice to just how beautiful it was - definitely worth a visit in peak poppy season 🙂

Thanks Mirella

Sadly yes - closed back in 2012 - was open for more than 50 years

Hi James - as you say the old RAF Officer’s Mess is now The Birches and I believe it is still open - makes you wonder if any overnight guests have any ghostly tales to tell 🙂

Thank-you - there is a lot to explore in Bodney - the derelict buildings around the old RAF base are supposed to be quite active, particularly the control tower

@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk so it would seem having watched your video. It’s such an unassuming place when you drive through and then to find out that it has such history to it is incredible really. We’ve often said ‘look at that church just stood in the middle of nowhere’ and add it to the list of places to visit. Had no idea about there being an RAF base there but then, it shouldn’t be a surprise as there were so many over East Anglia. I’m sure the information about all the RAF bases is available but, from our point of view, don’t know about most of them. It’s also sad to see that house start to decay as it looks as though it would be a peaceful location to live.

@@SuffolkSpiritHunters - I believe the former RAF base has been investigated a few times, particularly the old control tower which is not hugely active but some groups have reported unusual activity there. It is a lovely old cottage I have since re-visited and have more photos of the interior - will re-upload at some point soon :)

Hi Carrie - this church is rare in the fact you are allowed to explore the crypt below - most these days are blocked off or locked down completely which is understandable of course but this was a real experience especially given the history

Thanks Peter - it is a really fascinating church and quite rare to be able to gain access to a crypt these days - open daily along with the church 🙂

Thanks Sylvia appreciate the comments 🙂

Cheers Stephen - have you visited this one yourself? 🙂

@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk not yet but will at some stage. Looks interesting

Thanks Gary appreciate you tuning in again 🙂

Thank-you - you should definitely visit - the first time I visited the crypt was dusk one evening with failing light and when I reached the bottom of the steps my torch all of a sudden went dead so I was left in complete darkness. The torch was fully charged earlier that day and it was the first time I used it. It was quite a strange and unsettling experience. It is widely theorised in paranormal circles this could be a sign spirit is drawing energy in an attempt of direct communication - however I heard no voices but exited the crypt rather hastily. After this I left the phone camera running in the crypt and turned the lights on - meanwhile I sat in silence in the church - I thought this was worthwhile after the torch incident just to see if anything would show on camera or if I could capture any movements / voices in the crypt but on playback there was nothing to be seen or heard. Definitely worthy of an investigation though

@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk Power loss is so typical of active places, especially when visitations from the living are low, we found. You have wet our appetite even more now ! Thank you, Its going in the appointment book ! Keep up the great work.

Thank-you i will look forward to you sharing your visit here in the future 🙂

Thank-you for commenting 🙂

Hi Michael - it’s available to visit and book tickets - it’s called “Norwich’s Hidden Street Tours” 🙂

Hi Alan - it is a shame as this particular section is so spectacular - the one benefit of it not being widely known is it’s extremely quiet to visit which is nice - there is currently some work being carried out to stabilise the upstairs doorway so it is kept an eye on to some degree 🙂

Thank-you for commenting 🙂 - incredible history in Malta 🇲🇹 with very close ties to the UK 🇬🇧

Hi - yes you’re right - many chalk tunnels too and WW2 bunkers - probably a few more in and around the castle which remain hidden - lots of medieval undercrofts too - about 60 in total across the city - the largest collection in the country 🙂

@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk Kets Hights hold some storys.

Yes lots of history around there 🙂

Thanks 🙂 - yes it was heavily targeted during World War 2 because of its location and links to the UK but amazingly for such a tiny island it was never invaded - loads to explore and a very historic place - lots of folklore - it is also rumoured to have a hidden underworld where giants live!

It was exceptionally quiet on the night - I remember there being a few bats fluttering around the tower - otherwise dead silent - strange as you say considering it is located in woodland so you think there would be a few more wildlife sounds - there are no roads nearby so traffic noise either

Hi Dunwich is an amazing place and was a hugely important port. Greyfriars Priory is one of a few places I explore in the video along with the Leper Chapel within the graveyard of St James’s Church - there is an enchanting small bridge structure too in Greyfriar’s Wood which was originally built to link the grounds of the nearby Victorian mansion to the priory ruins. The footpath which runs under the bridge was previously Middlegate Street, an original medieval road which linked to the town.

Hi - who knows? It is a rather gruesome tale - thank-you for watching the video and commenting

@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk Massive fan! Have you done Tunstall church, just the otherside of the Acle striaght? go into Halvergate and follow and a dirt path. Also another church, like southwood, i use to play in!

Yes I’ve visited Tunstall Church - a spectacular ruin this one with a spooky tale too - here’s the video link for it - St Peter and St Paul Church Ruin - Tunstall - The Ghostly Manifestation and the Battle of the Bells! ruclips.net/video/AILbXQGfWnA/видео.html

Haha cheers 😅

Thanks for commenting - i didn’t know about the hidden room until i visited - this church was made infamous for the folklore - so was pleased to finally get to visit after hearing all the stories

Thank-you 🙂

Thanks for tuning in and commenting - I’ve captured a few EVPs over the years - this subterranean crypt has laid undisturbed for a very long time - it’s well hidden - most wouldn’t realise it is there unless you researched beforehand

It is an amazing time capsule - well worth a trip - considering the weight and size of the buildings above it has done very well to survive so long 🙂

This is one of my favourite places to date which I’ve visited - when I first got inside I was just taken aback - it is a real time capsule and virtually unchanged from when the last prisoners left 150 years ago - once given the key I had the whole building to myself - it is rarely visited even now - i was told I was possibly the first to visit after lockdown so it had been sealed for many months prior to my visit - I caught a disembodied voice in here saying “come back” as I exited one of the cells - this EVP features in one of my other videos - Voices From Beyond -The Evidence So Far -Thetford Warren Lodge, Walsingham Bridewell & Santon Church ruclips.net/video/Yzfad0s_i7U/видео.html

@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk Did you know that there was a bridewell in Wymondham as well?

I heard of this - although has it not been turned into housing now?

Yes I did although has it not been turned into housing now?

I saw this investigation I think - did you not go down into a secret chamber through a trapdoor? It was very interesting

@@HauntedandAbandonedNorfolk Yes we did, it was an original holding cell for the poorest of the poor. Pleased you got to see our investigation

It does seem a very active place from the various investigations I’ve seen different groups conduct here 🙂
