Fransham is a civil parish in the Breckland District of the English county of Norfolk; it covers an area of 12.14km2, and includes the villages of Great and Little Fransham and the hamlet of Crane's End. Fransham has an estimated population of 430 as of 2007.[3] It lies east from Swaffham and west from Dereham.The local pub in Little Fransham, the Canary and Linnet is just off the A47. Its name derives from the fact that the village is halfway between Norwich and King's Lynn ('Canaries' and 'Linnets' being the respective nicknames of Norwich City and King's Lynn Town football clubs). Great Fransham had a public house called Chequers which is now a private dwelling.
Great Fransham is served by All Saints church[4] and Little Fransham by St.Marys[5] both in the Benefice of Great Dunham.[6]
There is a commercially working forge with public demonstrations available.
