Felbrigg
Encyclopedia : F : FE : FEL : Felbrigg
Felbrigg is a small village just south of Cromer in Norfolk, England. The Danish name means a 'plank bridge'.
Historians believe that the original village was clustered around its perpendicular church, in the grounds of Felbrigg Hall, a Jacobean mansion built in the early 17th century, a mile to the east of the present village.
In the church are some fine 14th century brasses of Sir Simon de Felbrigge and his wife, the original Lord of the Manor here.
