Dereham Halal Travel Guide

St Withburga's well - Street Withburga's Holy Well

Dereham, sometimes knows as East Dereham and not to be confused with West Dereham (around 15 miles away), has a population presence of around 18,000. The town is situated 25 miles to the West of Norwich and 40 miles NNE of Ely.

The Town badge is from the arms of the Bishop of Ely with a deer. The three golden crowns are from the princesses and saints, Withburga, Æthelthryth and Saxburga. The town is on the site of a monastery founded by Street Withburga (whose body was stolen by the monks of Ely legend being that the Holy Well in Street Nicholas' Church started to flow when her body was stolen). Æthelthryth was a princess, a Fenland queen and Abbess of Ely. Saxburga was a queen then regent in Kent until her son came of age after which she moved to live at the Abbey of Ely. Dereham's name derives from a deer park that (is thought to have) existed in the area.

The town is twinned with the town of Rüthen in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is also twinned with Caudebec-lès-Elbeuf, France.
