HEATHER

Welcome to Heather

Houseboat of character, docked in Hoveton by the River Bure on the Norfolk Broads Waterways.

Heather is cared for by a partnership of friends and family. Our aim is to preserve the distinctive style of the houseboat and enable future generations to enjoy her charms.

Explore the riverside, browse the shops and places to eat and drink ~ and much more beyond monumental Wroxham Bridge.

Painting the wagon.... and the town


The sides of the wheeled truck body have been painted a neutral green, so as to blend into the leafy riverside setting. While, inside is fitted out with rustic boxes and baskets brimming with fun and thoughtful gifts and accessories.

Launching of the truck marks completion of the very first stage of ambitious plans to safeguard Heather and her associated collection for future generations. Proceeds from the truck and popular open air water bird food booths directly helps fund restoration and operational costs.

We are deeply indebted to the following ~ Jason, Christine, Andrew, David, Robert, Cheryl, Chris, Russell, Sue, Kelvin, Wendy, Angie, Will, Nigel, Sara, Kerry, Steve, Tina, Lewis, Carolyn, Matthew, Peter, Alex and members of the Royal Mail Vehicle Collectors Club. We would also like to thank friends of Heather, who have supported this project.

Advance, Britannia (and the world)!
