HINGHAM Hingham is a market town situated in the heart of rural Norfolk. Grand Georgian architecture surrounds the market place and village green. It was in the 18th century when the socialites of high society built and took residence in Hingham that it became fashionably known as "little London". The many and varied local shops have the special character of a small market town but are up-to-date in what they provide. Despite the influence and attractions of neighbouring Norwich, an active and independent town life continues to thrive and grow. The White Hart Hotel has recently re-opened following re-development by the popular 'Flying Kiwi Inns'. The town is located 17 miles from the Cathedral city of Norwich, which has a large number of restaurants, shops, supermarkets and services.
