Pulham Market is an award winning conservation village in South Norfolk. It is built on high ground to the north of a small stream known as The Beck. Its origins date back at least to the 10th century, when the land belonged to Ethelwold, the Bishop of Winchester, who later gave it to the abbey of St Ethelred at Ely. By the 14th century the village had become sufficiently wealthy to build its own church, St Mary Magdalene > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1594078. In Tudor times the village was famous for its cottage industries but when the market lost its appeal because of the larger one at Harleston many of the cottage industries were dispersed to other parts of Norfolk. The village boasts a number of old buildings > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1594098 which are listed as being of architectural and historic interest. The green is surrounded by thatched cottages > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1594055 as well as a general store and post office > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1594035 and a pub on each end: The Falcon > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1594037 in the north and the 17th century Crown at the other end, with the parish church towering over it > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1594022. Until the 1950s the village was served by the Waveney Valley Railway line > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1592892 which ran from the east coast to the main Norwich to London Line at Tivetshall. The line was closed in 1966.
