The village and civil parish of Rollesby lies in the district of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, England. It sits beside Rollesby Broad, one of the waterways of the Norfolk Broads, and its low-lying landscape of reedbeds, drainage channels and open water is popular with boaters, anglers and birdwatchers.
Historically rooted in agriculture and fenland drainage, the settlement still shows characterful flint and brick buildings and a medieval parish church; today the local economy blends farming, small businesses and tourism, with leisure on the Broads a big draw. Community life is typical of a small Broadland village, with a village hall, local pub and seasonal events that keep neighbours connected while conservation concerns influence development and recreation.
