The Arms

Image: © Stephen McKay Taken: 8 Feb 2015

The Arms is a hamlet within the parish of Little Cressingham and Threxton; its curious name appears to derive from a pub which was once here - the Cressingham Arms. There is nothing much here now except a parish notice case and a bench for the weary; even the old methodist chapel has become a private residence. It is more or less surrounded on three sides by the vast Stanford battle area - land used by the Army as a training ground since the Second World War - giving the small settlement an isolated end of the road feel.
