Heritage
The village name means "Homestead/village" or "hemmed-in land", with an obscure first element that is possibly a folk-name or place-name.[2]
The church of Wramplingham St Peter and St Paul is one of 124 existing round-tower churches in Norfolk.[citation needed]
Wramplingham Mill was a three-storey weatherboarded corn mill, demolished in 1945.[3]
Bill Bryson (born 1951), a British-American writer who gained immense popularity, lived in Wramplingham at the Old Rectory between 2003 and 2013. [4]
