Bradwell is a civil parish on the western fringe of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, England, now largely suburban in character but with easy access to the coastal marshes and the waterways of The Broads, making it appealing for walkers and birdwatchers as well as commuters into the town centre.
Historically a small village that grew with 19th- and 20th-century expansion of the port, Bradwell’s economy was long tied to fishing, shipbuilding and other port-related trades; today it mixes local shops and light industry with residential streets, community centres and a parish church at its heart, reflecting the strong local identity and the social and economic contrasts common to many English coastal communities.
