Fersfield is a village in the English county of Norfolk. It was the home parish of Francis Blomefield (Depicted on sign, standing by Fersfield church of St Andrew), whose History of Norfolk documents the history of much of South Norfolk, and forms part of the parish of Bressingham and Fersfield.
Fersfield has been variously recorded as Fersevella, Fervessella, Ferefeud, Fairfeud, Fairvill, and Fersfell, all which seem to signify a Fair Fee, or Village. The village was recorded in the Domesday book under Fersfield, however.
