Caistor St Edmund

Travel Guide

View south-west (upstream) along the River Tas. The River Tas rises near Carlton Fen (near New Buckenham) and then flows northwards for approximately 20 miles before joining the River Yare at Trowse - just south of Norwich. The Tas valley contains many interesting historical sites including an Iron Age hill fort > 1355699 at Tasburgh, the old Roman settlement of Venta Icenorum > 1352695 - now Caistor St Edmund - and the site of a woodhenge > 1391552 at Arminghall. During Roman times, the river was an important resource for the people of Venta Icenorum. Over the centuries, the Tas has also been visited by two of England's finest poets: William Wordsworth in 1790, and Philip Larkin.
