Cranberry Rough
Cranberry Rough is mostly a wilderness area of swamp and carr woodland; the remainder is damp meadows. In Tudor times, it was a large lake called Hockham Mere, fed by springs at its western end and deepest at its eastern end. It was drained over the next two centuries, and eventually turned into the swampy land we see today. It is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) for its wildlife, and has recently seen much scrub clearance work in its southern area.
