Brandiston is a very small rural parish in the Broadland district of Norfolk, England. Set among hedged lanes and arable fields, it comprises a handful of farms and cottages rather than a defined centre, giving it a quiet, agricultural character typical of the county.
Historically tied to farming, Brandiston contains a number of older buildings and a dispersed settlement pattern; with a tiny population it has few amenities and looks to nearby market towns such as Norwich and Dereham for services. Its peaceful lanes and countryside setting make it appealing to walkers and anyone seeking rural tranquillity.
