About Watton
Watton is a small market town in the Breckland district of central Norfolk. The town's most distinctive feature is its 17th-century clock tower, built in 1679 after the Great Fire of Watton destroyed much of the original town. Watton was historically associated with the legend of the Babes in the Wood, said to have taken place in nearby Wayland Wood. RAF Watton was an important Bomber Command station during the Second World War. Today Watton is a quiet, friendly town with a strong sense of community, a busy weekly market and a high street full of independent shops. The local housing stock includes a number of Georgian and Victorian properties as well as substantial post-war development, all of which keep local handymen in steady work.
