Diss
Diss is an English market town as well as selecting ward in the East Anglian area of Norfolk, near the boundary with Suffolk. It had a population of 7,572 in 2011. Diss railway station is on the Great Eastern Main Line from London to Norwich. The town hinges on the valley of the River Waveney, round a mere covering 6 acres (2.4 ha) and as much as 18 feet (5.5 m) deep, although there is an additional 51 feet (16 m) of mud. The community takes its name from dic an Anglo-Saxon word meaning either ditch or embankment. Diss has a number of historical buildings, consisting of an early 14th-century parish church and an 1850s corn exchange still in operation. 4 miles east of Diss is the 100th Bomb Group Memorial Museum at the former RAF Thorpe Abbotts landing strip. In March 2006, Diss became the third community in the UK to sign up with Cittaslow, a worldwide organisation promoting the concept of "Slow Towns". Nevertheless, it has actually since left this initiative.
