Trinity Broads

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Trinity Broads are part of the Broads National Park in Norfolk, England, comprising 5 broads in total. The three largest are Rollesby Broad, Ormesby Broad and Filby Broad, and there are two much smaller broads named Lily Broad and Ormesby Little Broad.[1]

Situated to the north west of Caister-on-Sea, the Trinity Broads are on a tributary of the River Bure, but there is no navigable link to the main river system, and they are therefore virtually undisturbed.

No motor boats are allowed onto the Trinity Broads.

Their main function is to supply water to Great Yarmouth, but they are also very popular with anglers. Recently, new facilities for disabled people have been created, including a special platform for anglers in wheelchairs.
