Downham Market probably had its origins as a Saxon settlement, sited around the elevated ground on which the Church was built, and achieved Market status by the year 1050. Downham was granted to the Abbey of Ramsey (founded AD965) as early as the reign of Edgar (959-975). Confirmation of this is recorded during the reigns of Edward the Confessor, William 1 and King John, in AD1047, 1078 and 1200 respectively.

The Town lies on the Roman Akeman Street and takes its name from a HAM (dwelling place) on a DUN or DOWN (hill). In the Doomsday book there are references to Duneham and Dunham, probably derived from the Anglo-Saxon word Dun or Dune meaning a hill and Downham has been called in times past, Dunharn, Donham, Douneham, Dounham, Dunarne. In a similar vein, two villages close to the Town, Hilgay and Bexwell, have been known in the past as Helgaye and Bekyswell. Thus Dounham or Douneham, roughly translated, means an estate on a hill. The Roman road is said to have traversed through Hertfordshire from Cirencester in the South, to Cambridge, Ely and thence through Downham Market to King’s Lynn. Certainly from Cambridge, the Al0 trunk road seems to have followed the path of this ancient route.

It is said that Lord Nelson attended his first school in Downham Market, but the sites of the school he attended vary between authors. The Eastern Electricity building in Bridge Street is favoured by some, the site of the old stables at Trafalgar House by others. The Bank House in Bridge Street is another choice, as well as the Furniture shop next door, known as Nelson House.
