Bintree is a small rural village and civil parish in the Breckland district of Norfolk, England, set among the gently rolling arable fields and pockets of dry heathland that characterise the area. The settlement is modest in size, with a scattering of traditional flint and brick buildings and winding country lanes that make it typical of inland Norfolk rather than a streeted market town.
Historically agricultural, the village has medieval roots and retains a quiet, close‑knit community feel; the parish church and a handful of farmsteads hint at that long continuity. Today the local economy is a mix of farming, small rural enterprises and residents who commute to nearby market towns, while community life often revolves around local events, countryside pursuits and conservation of the surrounding heath and farmland.
