Alethorpe

Little Snoring, United Kingdom

Alethorpe is a deserted medieval village site and former civil parish, now in the parish of Little Snoring, Norfolk, England. It is south-east of Little Snoring, around 2 miles (3.2 km) north-east of Fakenham and 23 miles (37 km) north-west of Norwich, north of A148 road. The village is one of around 200 lost settlements in Norfolk. It was abandoned in the 16th century, probably because the landlord enclosed the land. It is occasionally referred to as Althorp in historical literature. In 1931, the parish had a single resident.
