Castle Rising is a village and civil parish in the English county of Norfolk. It is best known as the location of Castle Rising Castle, which dominates the village. The village is situated some 8 kilometres ( mi) north-east of the town of King's Lynn and 60 kilometres (37 mi) west of the city of River Babingley skirts the North of the village separating Castle Rising from the site of the lost village of Babingley. The civil parish has an area of square kilometres ( sq mi) and in the 2001 census had a population of 225 in 110 households. For the purposes of local government, the parish falls within the district of King's Lynn and West Norfolk. Castle Rising is included in Snettisham's complex entry in the Domesday book where it is divided in ownership between William de Warenne and the Bishop of Bayeux. Related berewicks are West Newton and Castle Rising. However Castle Rising is clearly in the ownership of the Bishop of Bayeaux Prior to the Reform Act of 1832, Castle Rising had the status of a parliamentary borough and, because of its small population, was often cited as a rotten borough. Its most notable member was Robert Walpole, Prime Minister from 1721 to 1742. Samuel Pepys also served as its member.
