== History == The village is old; some say it was a Viking settlement. There are some houses that are known to have been built in the 15th century. The old Dragon Inn - now known as Dragon House - is believed to date back to about 1525. From the 11th century until the late 18th century, it is documented as one of the parishes within Hoxne Hundred. The village contains a church, St. Mary of Horham, of Norman origin, but much improved in the years either side of 1500.
