Heacham (52°54′25″N 00°29′24″E / 52.90694°N 0.49000°E / 52.90694; 0.49000) is a town in West Norfolk, England, located beside The Wash, between King's Lynn, 14 miles (23 km) to the south and Hunstanton, about 3 miles (4.8 km) to the north. It has been a seaside resort for a century and a half.
There is evidence of settlement in the Heacham area for around the last 5,000 years, with numerous Neolithic and later Bronze Age finds throughout the parish. This is presumably because the local geology consists of primarily cretaceous sands and underlying chalk, meaning that there is very little surface water for miles in any direction. This can also be seen along the banks of the Caudle Carr located just outside Dersingham, where numerous archaeological sites have been found. Running water in conjunction with the fertile surrounding lands made Heacham an ideal settling location for early man. Evidence of habitation continues through the Iron age into the Romano-British era. But the beginnings of the present village most probably did not occur until around the 5th century, with the Anglo-Saxon invasion and the beginnings of present-day East Anglia.

In the absence of any nearby railtours for some time, and being stuck indoors due to a week of heavy rain, I've put together a few scenes from around the village in which I live. Heacham is situated in North-West Norfolk on the side of The Wash, which is a wide tidal inlet from the North Sea. The tides come in fast and quite a few people have had to be rescued by the RNLI hovercraft after walking too far out to the sand banks. Norfolk Lavender exports products all over the world, and its Caley Mill centre is open to the public. Note the village sign, which features Pocahontas, who married local guy John Rolfe in Virginia in 1614 (not "John Smith" in the Disney animation!). The area is very popular for water sports, fishing, bird watching, and vacations.
