Overview

John Betjeman visited Diss in the 1960s with Mary Wilson (wife of the Prime Minister)...Dear Mary,
    Yes, it will be bliss, To go with you by train to Diss, Your walking shoes upon your feet........ 

This walk starts from Diss town centre, crossing into Suffolk to Palgrave, Wortham and back into Norfolk. The walk is mainly on small country roads/footpaths with little mud.
