Norfolk's Top Ten Views - The Results!

Over the summer months, your survey responses have flooded in by email, by post and in person to the Gallery...

Now - the wait is over. The Top Ten Views in Norfolk - as voted by you - are as follows:

1. Cromer Beach
2. Views over the River Bure
3. Morston - looking towards Blakeney
4. Salthouse church towards the sea
5. Holkham Beach
6. Brancaster
7. Weybourne Beach
8. West Runton Common
9. Sheringham Park
10 Castle Acre Priory

And the lucky winners of the prize draw to have their own favourite Norfolk view painted by local landscape maestro David Baxter are - Neville & Helen De Spretter of Godmanchester, Cambridgeshire.

The view they love the best is 'The view from the edge of Sheringham Park looking over to Weybourne, with the church just visible and the sea beyond'.

As they told Hatfield Hines "This is Norfolk at her best - sky, land and sea and nature, merging with the village in a timeless setting. This view is so evocative of what for us is paradise on earth."

Congratulations to Neville & Helen!
