Lay-by, Asgarby You can get some idea of the gloom from the headlights on passing vehicles. It's raining fairly steadily. This is the spot from which <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4792202">TF1145 : Towards the church at Asgarby</a> was taken.

Eastbound A17 The A17 is the major route for HGV's accessing Norfolk from Northern England and the Midlands and also a major holiday route in the summer months for cars and caravans making their way to the seaside resorts of Hunstanton, Wells-next-the-Sea, Sheringham, Cromer and Great Yarmouth and is one of only two direct routes that links Norfolk with the A1, the other being the A47.
