Thetford houses [5]
These four almshouses are even numbers 2 to 8 Croxton Road. Built in red brick in 1885. A boundary wall encloses the building on all sides and at the rear is developed into gabled outbuildings. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1195927
Once the ancient capital of East Anglia, Thetford is a market town established at a crossing of the River Little Ouse. A major centre of Boudica’s Iceni tribe and there is an Iron Age fort. Later came a Norman castle and an important priory. Thetford is the birthplace of 18th century radical Thomas Paine, whose thinking encouraged American independence and the abolition of slavery. After World War II, Thetford became an "overspill town", taking people from London.

Croxton Road, Thetford
Looking towards the town from the railway bridge on a very cold morning; although the sun is shining brightly it had not melted the ice in the shadow areas creating some very slippery conditions for the unwary.
