A 17th Century former drovers inn in Norfolk has updated its heating system with the latest air source heat pump technology thanks to renewable heating expert Finn Geotherm.

Located near Swaffham, the four bedroom period cottage was built in 1832. It was formerly a drovers inn and comprised two semi-detached cottages which were later knocked into one. When the current owners moved in, they inherited the cottage’s 35 year old oil boiler. The oil tank needed to be replaced and moved it away from the house to meet modern safety regulations.
