Heydon, Historic village in Norfolk, England
The village of Heydon spans 8.02 square kilometers and maintains a population of 101 residents within 53 households in northeast Norfolk.
The settlement, first documented as Heidon in 1196, received its market charter in 1311 and became Norfolk's first designated conservation area in 1971.
The Church of St Peter and St Paul contains medieval wall paintings discovered in 1970, along with a 13th-century font and historical tomb monuments.
The village connects to surrounding areas through a single access road called The Street, located 3 miles north of Reepham in the Broadland district.
Two witch bottles were discovered in the eastern lodge on Village Street, indicating historical practices of protection against supernatural forces.
