Hoe is a small civil parish in the Breckland district of Norfolk, England. It sits within the distinctive Breckland landscape of sandy soils, open arable fields and scattered pockets of heath and gorse, giving the area a somewhat windswept, low-lying character and interest for wildlife, particularly specialist plants and birds.
Historically the settlement grew around a parish church and a handful of farms, and its economy remains largely agricultural with arable farming dominant, while many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Watton and Thetford. The community is small but active, with village life focused on local events and the surrounding countryside popular with walkers and birdwatchers.
