North East Norfolk Bird Club

Spa Common

Image of Spa Common birding site

A small common on the east side of North Walsham. The River Ant / Dilham Canal passes through the area and it is also home to a sewage treatment works so could prove a bit of a magnet for migrants. Roughly a mile south of Pigney's Wood and Bacton Wood a similar distance away to the east, Anchor Road (NR28 9AJ) could be a good base to explore the area.
