The ward covering the villages of Horsford and Felthorpe lies a few miles north of Norwich in the district of Broadland, Norfolk, England. Set in gently rolling arable countryside, the area combines commuter-friendly links into the city with a distinctly rural character: working farms, small businesses and residential pockets sit among narrow lanes, hedgerows and small woodlands.
Both Horsford and Felthorpe retain village amenities and active community life - parish halls, pubs and local clubs - and host events that reflect long-standing rural traditions alongside newer residents who travel into Norwich. Historically rooted in agriculture and local manorial ties, the ward now balances heritage with modest local industry and a strong sense of community typical of the Broadland hinterland.
