Burnham Norton is a small, peaceful village and civil parish in the district of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, in Norfolk, England. Tucked up against the north Norfolk salt marshes, it looks out over The Wash and lies close to famous wildlife sites such as Cley Marshes and Blakeney, with views towards Scolt Head Island, making it popular with birdwatchers and people seeking coastal walking and wildlife.
Historically the village retains a very rural character, with a medieval church (one of the many distinctive round‑tower churches in the county), scattered farmsteads and attractive cottages; the local economy is still rooted in agriculture but tourism and nature conservation play an important role, and the community tends to be small, quiet and focused on preserving the landscape and wildlife that define the area.
