Cawston is a village and civil parish in the Broadland district of Norfolk, England, set in gently rolling agricultural countryside to the north of Norwich and within easy reach of small market towns such as Aylsham and Reepham.
Traditionally an agricultural settlement, Cawston retains a number of historic buildings in local flint and brick and a strong sense of community centred on its parish life and village organisations. In recent years it has balanced rural character with modest commuter growth, and the surrounding lanes and fields make it popular with walkers and anyone looking for country living while remaining within reach of city amenities.
