Nature and Wildlife Group Shoot - Sculthorpe Moor

  • Norwich & District Photographic Society Sculthorpe Moor Nature Reserve, Turf Moor Road, Sculthorpe, Fakenham, NR21 9GN United Kingdom (map)

The next Nature and Wildlife shoot will take place at Sculthorpe Moor home of the Hawk & Owl Trust.

The Hawk and Owl Trust was founded in 1969 (as the Hawk Trust) because of concerns about the alarming decline in numbers of Peregrines and other raptors. Owls were added to their remit shortly afterwards and the Hawk and Owl Trust was born.

One of the country’s most accessible reserves, Sculthorpe is internationally recognised for its wildlife. The reserve is located in the beautiful Wensum Valley in Norfolk, and is a marvellous, peaceful place with a huge variety of wildlife in a rich and unusual mosaic of woodland, fen and reed bed habitats.

A series of hides for watching wildlife are located throughout the reserve and include the elevated, tree-top Volunteer Hide and Aerial Walkway. All hides are fully accessible by wheelchair. Sculthorpe Moor can proudly boast that we are one of the most disabled-friendly and accessible nature reserves in the whole country.

Meet in the car park at 10am
The reserve is a few miles inland from the North Norfolk coast, off the A148 King's Lynn to Fakenham road, just outside Fakenham town. Take Turf Moor Road (signposted 'Nature Reserve' on the A148, opposite Sculthorpe village.
