1834] JOUKNAL— NORFOLK. 21 



Wiveton churches, the former large, old, once very fine, now in a 

 very bad state of repair, the latter large and very light. 



May 24. Walked as far as Glandford, church in ruins, used 

 about eighty years since. The country hilly, hills formed of sand 

 with a subsoil of chalk, covered with gorse, Rosa spinosissima, fern, 

 etc. In the fields Fapaver Eheas, dubium, and argemone are very 

 common. 



May 25. Sunday. Whitear has adopted the plan of taking the 

 New Testament, and explaining it regularly from the pulpit in the 

 form of short lectures. 



May 26. To Langham and Burnham Abbey, a fine monastic 

 building (formed, like nearly all the buildings of this part of the 

 country, of pebbles mortared together), all quite in ruin, except part 

 of the church, now used by the parish. Then to Stifkey, an old 

 house with four round towers at the angles, part in ruins, now used 

 as a farmhouse : by Morston and Blakeney home. 



May 27. Went along the coast in a gig by Salthouse to Wey- 

 bourne, a fine old monastery in ruin, the church used by the parish. 

 Walked under or upon the cliff's to Sherringham and Cromer. Dined 

 half-way up the cliffs between Sherringham and Cromer. Cromer 

 church partly in ruin. Returned inland by Runton and Beeston 

 to Sherringham, a small monastic building quite ruined, has been 

 very elegant. 



May 28. To Edgefield Heath, south of Holt, found there Drosera 

 longifolia in plenty. 



May 30, 31. Was not well, obliged to have the advice of Mr. 

 Buck, a clever man, formerly a naval surgeon. 



June 4. Went to the marshes, and found a large number of 

 Macroplea Zosterae on Potamogeton in fresh water. 



June 5. Found Lepidium ruderale in great plenty just below the 

 town of Cley. In the evening went to Holt, preparatory to my 

 return to Cambridge, June 6th. 



June 9. Went with Power to the Hills, and took Haltica 

 antennata in plenty, also Cryptocephalus Morei. 



June 11. Left Cambridge for the Long Vacation. Arrived in 

 London. Saw D. Don, to whom I engaged to send specimens of 

 EuphorUa epithjmdides for Sowerby's "Supplement to the English 

 Botany." 



June 12. Went to Hammersmith to J. 0. Westwood; he said 

 that he was fully convinced that my Malachius is quite distinct from 

 that which is figured in Panzer. I delivered to him my paper on 

 Dromius to be read to the Entomological Society. He promised to 

 purchase for me (at Mr. Haworth's sale) one of his cabinets, containing 

 forty -four drawers, not giving more than 15s. a drawer for it.
