Wighton
Wighton is a small and sleepy rural village five minutes drive from the coast at Wells-next-the-Sea
and the north Norfolk coast with its miles of unspoilt coastline, and the historic village and Shrine of
Little Walsingham. The village has a tea shop and an inn, The Carpenters Arms. The tower of All
Saints church collapsed in a storm in 1965 but through the generosity of a Canadian architect whose
family had lived in the village, the tower was rebuilt and rededicated in 1976.
