*************

Burnham Deepdale is a village on the north coast of the English county of Norfolk. Burnham Deepdale is in the civil parish of Brancaster, along with Brancaster Staithe. The three villages form a more or less continuous settlement along the A149, at the edge of the Brancaster Manor marshland and the Scolt Head Island National Nature Reserve.

History and geography

The villages name means 'Homestead/village on the River Burn' or perhaps, 'hemmed-in land on the River Burn'. 'Deepdale', which means 'Deep valley', was added to distinguish it from the other Burnhams in Norfolk.[1]

Burnham Deepdale is located about 1 1/2 miles (3 km) West of Burnham Market, 22 miles (35 km) North East of the town of King's Lynn and 31 miles (50 km) North West of the city of Norwich.[1] The Norfolk coastal footpath is just around 2 miles to the north and runs for 47 miles.

The village is one of the original seven Burnhams, which include Burnham Norton, Burnham Overy, Burnham Sutton, Burnham Thorpe, Burnham Ulph and Burnham Westgate.

The village's Anglican parish church, St Mary, is one of 124 existing round-tower churches in Norfolk,[2] and houses a Norman font.

Buildings and amenities

Burnham Deepdale's amenities include Deepdale Cafe, Dalegate Market and the tourism accommodation facilities of Deepdale Backpackers & Camping. Brancaster Staithe has the main harbour access, sailing club, sailing school, The White Horse pub & hotel and The Jolly Sailors pub.

Both Burnham Deepdale and Brancaster offer accommodation in holiday cottages, hostels, camping, hotels and bed & breakfasts. Village life centres on the harbour and its thriving fishing and sailing community.
