Litcham is a small village and civil parish in the heart of the Breckland district of Norfolk, England. Tucked into the mixed arable and heath landscape that characterises the Brecks, it sits between the market towns of Swaffham and East Dereham and is within easy reach of Norwich, offering a distinctly rural feel while having reasonable links to larger centres.
The village retains a medieval parish church and a cluster of traditional cottages; its local economy is largely agricultural with a handful of small businesses, and community life revolves around the village hall, school and pub. Regular local events and fund‑raisers help maintain a close‑knit social scene, making Litcham a good example of a living Norfolk village that balances historic character with everyday rural life.
