Horsham St. Faith and Newton St. Faith sit in the gentle arable landscape north of Norwich within the Broadland district of Norfolk, England. The parish is perhaps best known for the airfield at Horsham St. Faith, originally an RAF station with Second World War associations and now the site of Norwich International Airport, while the villages themselves retain historic churches and lanes that reflect their medieval origins - the dedication to St Faith gives them their distinctive names.

Life here mixes agriculture and small‑scale local services with a commuter link to the city, and the surrounding rivers, farmland and footpaths attract walkers and birdwatchers. Community life revolves around village halls, occasional fetes and local clubs, and there are visible reminders of the parish’s layered history alongside modern economic activity tied to the airport and nearby urban centres.
