Attleborough sits on the A11 between Norwich and Thetford, and a great part of the town was destroyed by fire in 1559. The Griffin Hotel on Church Street was built in that period. A centre rebuilt over centuries ends up with roofs of very different ages sitting shoulder to shoulder: party walls and valleys where one build meets the next, and parapets and hidden gutters that only announce a fault once a ceiling stains. Work on the older Queen's Square and High Street buildings is close work, done off proper scaffold rather than off a ladder, and it starts with finding where the water is getting in rather than where it is running out. We also cover Besthorpe, Great Ellingham and Old Buckenham.
The parish church, St Mary's (the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary), is Grade I listed and built of flint with ashlar dressings. The station is on the Breckland line, with Greater Anglia and East Midlands Railway services. The charter market still runs weekly on a Thursday, 8.30am to 1pm, on Queen's Square in front of the Town Hall, so the square is tighter to work around that morning. The bypass opened in 1984 and was widened in 2007.
Population went from 10,482 in 2011 to 11,232 in 2021. The council-owned Cyprus Estate came first, then private schemes at Fairfields and Ollands built mainly in the 1970s, and a large estate on the south side in the 1990s. Estate roofs of one age and one spec mean the same fault turns up plot after plot, away from the older centre.
