Wicklewood is a village and civil parish in the South Norfolk district of Norfolk, England. It is located 11 miles (18 km) west of Norwich next to the market town of Wymondham, neighbouring the villages of Deopham, Hackford and Kimberley. It covers an area of 8.75 km2 (3.38 sq mi) and had a population of 886 in 345 households at the 2001 census,[1] which had increased to 922 at the 2011 Census.[2]

The villages name probably means, 'wych-elm wood/clearing'. 'Wood' is redundant.[3]

Governance

An electoral ward in the same name exists. This ward has a population of 3,308 at the 2011 Census.[4]

Amenities

The village has a small primary school, Wicklewood School, as well as a small church, St Andrews and All Saints.

Wicklewood has a local cricket team that participates in various Sunday League matches and was the holder of the Wicklewood Shield trophy won in 2006.[citation needed]

The village also has one public house called the Cherry Tree where the full range of Buffy's ales, made in Tivetshall St. Mary, can be tasted.

Hospital Road is the site of a large neo-Georgian building, now private homes. This is the former Forehoe workhouse, built in the late 19th century. In 1948 it was incorporated into the National Health Service as Hill House Hospital, later Wicklewood Geriatric Hospital, before closing in 1974.[5]

The former Ashcroft supported housing centre on Milestone Lane has been closed since 2015:[6] as of 2019, the buildings are for sale to be redeveloped as private housing.[7]

The former St James Church on Low Street served the community of Crownthorpe. Its patron was Lord Wodehouse.[8] It is now a private residence.[9]

Roman remains

The site of a Romano-Celtic temple near Wicklewood was discovered from cropmarks in 1959, and was excavated in that year. It evidently served a settlement nearby, as many Roman objects have been found.[10]
