The name Weavers' Way comes from the cloth industry that was once a major industry in the area before the industrial revolution.

At Cromer, the Weavers' Way links with the Norfolk Coast Path, and at Great Yarmouth it joins the Angles Way. Combined with the Peddars Way the trails make a circuit around Norfolk.
