Harpley, Norfolk

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Harpley is a small village between Norwich and Fakenham. The village dates to the time of Domesday Book, if not earlier, and the name probably refers to salt-panning (from the 'salt-harp', a filter used in salt manufacture in medieval times). The historic church of St Lawrence boasts a lovely angel roof, with a 14th century rood screen and lovely carved wooden pews. The church itself is primarily 13th century
