Cringleford is a parish and village in Norfolk, England on the banks of the River Yare on the outskirts of Norwich. The village is in the South Norfolk local government district and is part of the Norfolk South Parliamentary constituency. Cringleford forms part the wider Norwich Built-up area. A village existed here at least as early as Saxon times and there is evidence of human settlement in the area from Roman times and the Bronze Age.The place-name 'Cringleford' is first attested in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle for 1043 or 1044, where it appears as Cringelforth. In the Domesday Book of 1086 it appears as Kringelforda. The name means 'ford by the round hill'. The first element may be Scandinavian, as Old Norse kringla means 'a circle'.The size of the village is 4.04 square kilometres (1.56 sq mi) and the population of the village (including Intwood) at the time of the 2011 UK census was 2963. The population is likely to increase as a result of the current process of suburbanisation, with new housing development and improved transport links such as the Norwich South Bypass. Lying close to the city of Norwich the village has become popular with commuters.
