The village of Burgh St Margaret, also called Fleggburgh. It is thought that Burgh was the original name but with altogether four Norfolk villages called 'Burgh' it became necessary to distinguish between them. The adjoining parish used to be called Burgh Vaux or Burgh St Mary, the latter adopting the name of their church > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/376316 - in ruins since the 16th century - only the round tower remains. Fleggburgh/Burgh St Margaret is located on the A1064, the main route linking Acle to West Yarmouth before the opening of the Acle Straight (A47/New Road) as a toll road in 1831.
