Hellesdon Parish Hall. Beside Low Road, adjoining St Mary's church; the village sign > 850755 - 850757 is located here. Hellesdon is a large suburb of Norwich. Signs of very early settlement, such as a variety of flint tools (believed to be at least 4,000 years old) have been unearthed in the area. Bronze axe heads were found near Hellesdon Hall and a skeleton dating from around 600 CE was discovered in Low Road. It is not clear where the old name for Hellesdon - Hailesduna - originates from. It is believed that Edmund, the King of the East Angles, may have been martyred here. In 985, Abbo of Fleury, who at Ramsey Abbey (Cambridgeshire) compiled the 'Life of St Edmund', writes that he heard the Archbishop relate a story that came from a young man who had heard it from a very old man who claimed to have been King Edmund's armour bearer at the time of his death. On his capture, Edmund was whipped and tied to a tree, and shot with arrows. He was then beheaded and his head thrown into a bramble thicket in Hegelisdun Wood - hence the association with Hailesduna, present-day Hellesdon. The King's head was later found, guarded by a wolf, and according to the story the body was buried in a small chapel built nearby for the purpose. The site of the chapel is believed to be the site where St Mary's church stands > 850769. The church and the dead body of King Edmund, guarded by a wolf, are depicted on the village sign > 850757.

Perhaps most widely known for its renowned zoo, the village of Banham is located along the B1113, 11 kilometres north of Diss, 19 kilometres east of Thetford and 32 kilometres south-west of Norwich. The tree-lined village green is surrounded by old thatched houses > 1408825 some with overhanging storeys, and dominated by St Mary's church > 1408886 which adjoins the green in the west. Industries in Banham include the Gaymer Cider factory and brick making from locally found clay. The village has a number of small shops, a Spar supermarket and a village shop > 1408855 and post office, two pubs, and a primary school which caters for about 120 pupils.
