Scouts have high hopes for wonderwall
A £20,000 climbing wall, one of the largest in the county, was opened in Attleborough on Sunday.
St Mary's Scout group received 15,000 from the National Lottery's Awards For All to build the structure behind its Station Road headquarters.
The climbing wall stands 10.5m high to the top of the abseil tower and is 6m at its widest point.
Scout group leader, John Stillwell, said: "We are not restricting the use of the wall to the scout group.
"The wall is designed for all to use, no matter what ability or age."
A second wall is also being readied on the site, which can be used by the disabled.
Mr Stillwell said additional funding was being sought for equipment.
