More about this scene

Set a short distance away from the Cromer to Norwich road, Aldborough offers a spacious prospect with cottages grouped round a broad green. East Anglian villages, built on cleared common land, so often enjoy a handsome central space, echoing the broad skies overhead. The village has a watermill alongside the River Bure.

Does anyone remember Juliette Issacs? I am trying to find her, we lost touch in 1986. I remember she lived here and I used to visit often. She had 3 brothers, one called Simon, and her dad was called John. I would appreciate any info.
