Where are the various sites to see starlings in Norfolk?

Hi,
I'd really like to see the starlings going to roost. I live in West Norfolk and I'm not keen on driving in the dark so I'd like to try and find the nearest site to me.
If anyone knows where the various sites are in Norfolk I'd appreciate it.
Thanks

I would say Lakenheath Fen RSPB which is just outside Norfolk but for this post...

Thanks for that, but having read the other post I think I'll look for somewhere else. Shame, because Lakenheath's not too far.
Seems a bit daft to me.

Is Fen Drayton too far for you?

Thanks, it's definitely worth considering. It's quite a way but I know the area better than Norfolk (I've not been here long).
The only problem I have with driving in the dark is all the wildlife that jumps out on me, I end up driving slower and slower and becoming a real pain to everyone who wants to drive at 60mph along country lanes.
