A wildlife trust celebrating its centenary has bought what will become a new nature reserve for £4.6m.

The Norfolk Wildlife Trust (NWT) was founded by Dr Sydney Long in 1926 after he purchased 435 acres of marsh at Cley next the Sea.

One hundred years on, NWT has announced it has purchased 336 acres of mostly arable land at Wood Norton, near its Foxley Wood site, after receiving £3.8m from the Natural England Nutrient Mitigation Scheme.
