Map of the UK

Lingwood and Burlingham is a pair of rural villages in the Broadland district of Norfolk, lying east of Norwich and within easy reach of the Norfolk Broads. The area is characterised by flat arable farmland, hedgerows and small pockets of woodland, with a local railway halt on the Wherry Lines providing a regular link into Norwich and Great Yarmouth, which helps support a mix of farming and commuter households.

The settlements have long agricultural and medieval roots, reflected in scattered historic farmhouses and village churches, and today sustain a quiet community life centred on a village hall, local shops and pubs, school facilities and active societies. Occasional local events and volunteer organisations keep a strong social fabric, while the surrounding landscape attracts walkers and people wanting easy access to the Broads without being in the busier waterside villages.
