The River Hor is a short river in the county ofNorfolk,England. It runs 13.3 kilometres (8.3 mi) east from its source nearFelthorpe to its confluence with theRiver Bure nearWroxham.[1]
The name of the river is probably a back-formation from the name of villages that it flows through. The village ofHorsford has a name meaning "ford that horses can cross", so the river's name may be formed from that.[2]
