Visiting Hunstanton does not always live up to its nickname given to it by the locals - "Sunny Hunny". So on days when it is too cold or rainy to laze on one of the wide sandy beaches, here are ten interesting places to visit, and all are an easy stroll from the town centre.
1.Coastguard Lookout Tower. Built in 1907, the tower was a Marconi listening post in both World Wars, and is now a private residence. Location: On the cliffs at St Edmund's Point.
2.Golden Lion Hotel. Opened in 1846 and originally named The New Inn, this was the town's first building. Location: The Green, Hunstanton.
3.Cross on the Green. Origins unknown, but thought to have been brought from the green in the nearby village of Old Hunstanton at the time when the Golden Lion Hotel was built. It may once have been the old village cross from Snettisham. Location: The Green, Hunstanton.
