The Millennium Hall in Pulham Market
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.
