Mundford is a small village and civil parish in Breckland, Norfolk, England, sitting on the edge of the distinctive heathland known as The Brecks. It retains a strongly rural character, with farmland, a parish church and a modest village centre that reflects its historic role as a local service point for surrounding hamlets.

Historically agricultural, the local economy still leans on farming though many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Thetford and Swaffham. The village benefits from easy access to outdoor attractions like Thetford Forest and the Brecks for walking and birdwatching, and an active community life around the village hall, pub and wartime memorial keeps local traditions alive.
