Map of the UK

Roudham and Larling is a small, quietly rural parish in Breckland, Norfolk, made up of dispersed lanes, farmsteads and two small village nuclei. Agriculture, especially arable farming, shapes the local economy and many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Thetford or Norwich. The parish sits within the distinctive Brecks landscape of sandy soils, pinewoods and heathland, a patchwork that supports notable wildlife including rare ground-nesting birds.

Historic touches survive in medieval parish church buildings, old farmhouses and the remains of former transport links around a once-important railway junction, giving the area a strong sense of place. Community life is understated but active, with countryside pursuits, walking and birdwatching popular, and easy access to the wider tracks and woodlands of The Brecks.
