The hamlet is called Tilney *** Islington. The ballad is "The Bailiff's Daughter Of Islington"
Those damn censors strike again. OK let's try it this way. It's a three letter version of the word "come" but spelt with a "u" between the "c" and the "m"
Thanks for that because my maps didn't show an Islington in Norfolk. I'm trying to make up my mind about the village - I was going for Castle Acre but can't relate that to the "little" and "larger" villages. Or perhaps there is another Cluniac priory?
Any help much appreciated.
great & little walsingham
Many thanks, mike b
The answer is Castle Acre. This has an impressive earthworks nearby.

mike b is right about the names of the villages, but this is earlier on in the puzzle and has no connection with Castle Acre. I know that sometimes the setter of these puzzles does backtrack, but not this time.
