Icklingham history
Icklingham may take its name from an Iron Age tribe, the Iceni, who lived in the area. There are the remains of a Roman settlement to the south-east; Old English Iclingaham “home of the Iclingas” appears to derive from the royal house descended from Icel of Angeln, which would give rise to kings of both East Anglia and Mercia. It was also one of the largest Anglo-Saxon settlements in area and can demonstrate nearby occupation to Neolithic times.
