Sitting on the River Chet, Loddon is an attractive town with lots of interesting buildings and the centre is a conservation area. In the past, the river would have had wherries passing up and town carrying cargo but these days it’s more of a tourist and leisure attraction and a popular stop-off for those boating on the Broads. The beautiful staithe has an 18th-century watermill, while Holy Trinity Church dates back to 1490 and has a medieval font.
