About Thetford and the 01842 Area Code
Thetford is an ancient town straddling the Rivers Thet and Little Ouse on the Norfolk-Suffolk border, with a history stretching back to the Iron Age. It was once the seat of the Bishops of East Anglia and a major medieval centre, with a vast castle mound that is one of the largest in England. Thomas Paine, author of "Rights of Man" and a key figure in both the American and French revolutions, was born here in 1737, and a gilded statue by Sir Charles Wheeler stands outside the King's House.
The 01842 area encompasses the distinctive Breckland landscape, a unique area of sandy heathland, pine plantations, and flint-knapped villages. Brandon, on the Little Ouse, was historically the centre of the flint-knapping industry, supplying gun flints to the British Army for centuries. Lakenheath and Feltwell are villages near the Fens whose names are also associated with RAF Lakenheath, one of the largest American air bases in Europe. Mundford and Elveden sit within Thetford Forest, the largest lowland pine forest in England, created by the Forestry Commission from the 1920s onwards.
A 01842 virtual phone number positions your business in the Brecks, a distinctive region where rare wildlife, military heritage, and forestry combine with a growing tourism economy centred on Center Parcs Elveden Forest and the extensive Thetford Forest trail network.
