The 14th century church of St. Helen's has a fine 15th century painted rood[?] screen and a rare Antiphoner[?]. This illuminated manuscript was bequeathed to the church in 1478. It was produced by the monks of Langley Abbey and consists of 285 sheepskin[?] pages of writing and illustrations, with daily services in medieval Latin and nineteen miniature[?] paintings.
From the top of Ranworth church's 100 ft. tall tower one can see many of the broads and rivers.
