Peddars Way

The Peddars Way is a long distance footpath in Norfolk, England. It is 46 miles (74 kilometers) long and follows the route of a Roman military road. The name is said to be derived from the Latin pedester -- on foot. It is first mentioned on a map of 1587. It starts at Knettishall Heath in Norfolk (about 7km east of Thetford[?] near the Norfolk-Suffolk border), and it links with the North Norfolk Coastal Path at Holme-next-the-Sea.
