The Grade I-listed Norman Bungay Castle became the seat of the Bigod family, allies of King William during the conquest of 1066. The Bigods were charismatic leaders among the barons and oversaw the construction of the keep in the latter half of the 12th century. Today, Bungay Castle is an impressive ruin, with its two huge gate towers still intact. However, throughout 2023, the castle was closed for restorations.

Occupying an enviable spot on Rockland Staithe, the New Inn is a traditional country pub. It serves great food and drink, perfect for a refuel after exploring Rockland Broad and the trails along the River Yare. The 38-mile (61 km) Wherryman's Way long-distance trail passes right by the door too.
