Feltwell is a ward centred on the rural village of the same name in the borough of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, in Norfolk, England. Set in the flat, open fenland landscape typical of west Norfolk, it combines a compact historic core with outlying farms and ribbon development; the presence of RAF Feltwell to the south has shaped the locality for much of the 20th and 21st centuries.
The area has a quiet, village‑scale social life with a mix of agricultural and local service economies, a parish church and a handful of community organisations and events that give it a strong local identity. Historic buildings and conservation features speak to its long past, while the influence of the nearby military site and reasonably direct road links to larger towns mean it sits between traditional rural life and more modern, commuter and service‑oriented activity.
