Excerpt from Norfolk

Before we begin to study the geography of Norfolk, we ought to know why the name of Norfolk has been given to a county situated near the middle of the east coast of England. If we knew nothing at all about the evolution of the English counties, we might naturally imagine that a county called Norfolk would be in the northern part of the country. To help us to understand why an eastern county bears that name, we must know how England became divided into counties and what relation these comparatively modern divisions of the land bear to certain earlier ones.
