History

The name "Harleston" possibly means "Heoruwulf"[4] or "Harolds Stone".[5] Harleston was recorded in the Domesday Book as Heroluestuna.[6] Harleston was a chapelry in Reddenhall parish.[7]

The right to hold an eight-day fair during the period of the Beheading of St. John the Baptist was granted to Roger Bigod, 4th Earl of Norfolk by Henry III in 1259.[8]

Many Georgian residences and much earlier buildings, with Georgian frontages, line the streets of Harleston. Although there is no record of a royal charter, Harleston has been a market town since at least 1369 and still holds a Wednesday market.[9][10]

One of the plots to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I was to be launched on Midsummer Day 1570 at the Harleston Fair by proclamations and the sound of trumpets and drums.[11] The Elizabethan play Friar Bacon and Friar Bungay features this in one of its scenes.[12]

Amenities

Harleston has a state-funded all-through school called Harleston Sancroft Academy,[13] a football club called Harleston Town which plays at Wilderness Lane,[14] a library on Swan Lane,[15] a museum called Harleston Museum,[16] a police station[17] on 12 Swan Lane[18] and a church called St John the Baptist.[19] The Corn Exchange, completed in 1849, has been partitioned to create a series of shop units.[20]

Harleston railway station closed in 1953.[21] The nearest station is now Diss, which is ten miles to the west.[22]
