Overstrand Norfolk: A small Norfolk village with a population of around 1,100, Overstrand, like its neighbour Cromer has been important for fishing over the centuries. Its beautiful beaches now make it more significant as a holiday destination, attracting many visitors during the summer time. Known as Othestranda at the time of the Norman Conquest, it probably developed as a settlement sometime around the 5th century.
Once nicknamed "Poppyland" by London travel writer Clement Scott, a number of well heeled Londoners subsequently purchased property in the village. Suffering greatly from the coastal erosion which affects many nearby areas, Overstrand has seen many of its buildings disappear into the sea.
As can be seen from this Overstrand map, the village can be accessed via the B1159, it is about 2 miles from Cromer, 23 miles from Norwich and about 137 miles driving distance from central London.
