Tacolneston

Tacolneston () is a village and civil parish in the South Norfolk district of Norfolk with a population of around 700, measured at the 2011 census as a population of 825. Its name occurs in the 1086 Domesday Book as Tacoluestuna and is theorized to come from Anglo-Saxon Tātwulfes tūn, meaning "Tātwulf's farmstead", via an old handwriting misread 'n' for 'u'. It is the location of the Tacolneston transmitting station, a facility for both analogue and digital VHF/FM radio and UHF television transmission. Tacolneston Church of England Primary School, which has around 80 pupils aged 5–11, is situated on Norwich Road. The village is the site of the historic All Saints' parish church, which has a ring of six bells in its tower, part of which dates from the 14th century.
