History
History
Ulting was the location of the first sugar beet factory in England, although its useful life was cut short by cheap imports of cane sugar. Ernest Doe & Sons produced farm machinery in the 1950s and 1960s, including the odd Doe Triple-D tractor.
Church
Church
All Saints, the village church, has been standing since 1150, with a major restoration taking place in the 1870s. The church was once a place of pilgrimage ranking with Walsingham and other famous shrines. The River Chelmer runs next to the church and through Ulting. The church and river was the filming location of folk-rock band Smoke Fairies’ 2023 music video, “Vanishing Line”.
