The parish of Tibenham is located in south Norfolk. The name may derive from the Old English meaning 'Tibba's homestead'. By Domesday the estate is listed as possessing woodland and a mill.
No Anglo-Saxon remains have been examined archaeologically, though numerous Saxon objects have been found. Of particular note are a Middle/Late Saxon Ringerike strap-end and a 10th-century Anglo-Scandinavian bead or pin head. Several of the other finds date to the Middle Saxon period, and these consist of a pin, sceatta and a stylus. The presence of this last object may indicate a literate population. The VASLE dataset is derived from the Norfolk HER and the EMC.
