Where it takes a sharp bend, changing direction from northwesterly to southwesterly as it flows through the village of Horning. Although many people were out enjoying this warm sunny day in late July these restaurant tables were empty. The village of Horning is situated on the northern bank of the River Bure, stretching for about a mile. Lower Street, its main thoroughfare, runs parallel to the river; it is lined with shops, restaurants, B&B establishments and attractive houses and cottages. The history of Horning dates back to 1020 when the manor was given by King Canute to the newly founded Abbey of St Benet.
