Waxham

Waxham is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of  Sea in the North Norfolk district, on the north-east coast of the county of Norfolk, England. Buildings in the village include Waxham Hall, the 14th-century St. John’s Church and the 16th-century Waxham Great Barn. Waxham Hall is reputedly haunted by the ghosts of six members of the Brograve family, all of whom died in battle, and is said that an 18th-century owner of the house once invited them all to dinner.^[1] Waxham Great Barn (Listed Grade 1) built about 1570, at 178 feet long is one of the largest barns of its age in the country. It has recently been restored and opened to the public. The village has an extensive beach backed by dunes.
