The community formed by Ormesby St. Margaret and neighbouring Scratby lies on the east Norfolk coast, a few miles north of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, with the North Sea to the east and low-lying marshes and waterways that link into The Broads to the west.
It mixes a traditional village core - centred on a historic parish church and agricultural hinterland - with a seaside resort feel in Scratby, where sandy beaches, holiday parks and caravan sites bring a seasonal boost; the local economy leans on tourism, farming and commuting to Great Yarmouth, and community life is noticeably quieter outside the summer months.
