About Norley Bank Farm

Norley Bank Farm offers a traditional setting of courtyards, barns, fields and gardens which are filled with shrubs, perennials and annuals to give a very colourful display. A newly planted orchard is home to our free range hens and also an enclosed cut flower garden with raised beds that surround a wooden greenhouse. The pond was restored in 2013 having gradually become silted up and home to some thirsty crack willows. It is now a wonderfully mature pond full of wildlife with a back drop of trees and flowers. A second pond has been dug to attract great crested newts. On sunny days, there is an abundance of damsel and dragon flies. We specialise in breeding Coloured Ryeland sheep, that can be seen in the fields and we foster two donkeys on behalf of the donkey sanctuary.
