Larling
Larling is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Roudham and Larling, in the English county of Norfolk.
Larling is located 8.5 miles (13.7 km) north-east of Thetford and 21.4 miles (34.4 km) south-west of Norwich.
Larling's name is of Anglo-Saxon origin and derives from the Old English for Lyrel's people.
In the Domesday Book, Larling is listed as a settlement of 20 households in the hundred of Shropham. In 1086, the village was divided between the East Anglian estates of William de Warenne and Ulfkil.
On 1 April 1935 the parish was abolished and merged with Roudham.
During the Second World War, an emergency runway was built on Larling Heath.
Larling's former parish church is dedicated to Saint Ethelbert and dates from the Twelfth Century. St. Ethelbert's is located just off Sallow Lane and has been Grade I listed since 1958. The church holds Sunday service twice a month.
St. Ethelbert's holds an imposing Norman doorframe and was restored in the Victorian era which saw the installation of several stained-glass windows installed by Clayton and Bell.
