Southery is a small village and civil parish in the district of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk, England. It sits on the edge of the flat, low-lying The Fens, a landscape shaped by centuries of drainage and peat working, so the surrounding countryside is largely agricultural with a network of ditches and drains and long, open horizons.
Locally the village feels characteristically rural, with a parish hall, village green and community events that reflect a farming heritage; residents often commute to nearby towns such as Downham Market or King's Lynn for work and services. Historic layers of fenland reclamation and local churches add interest for walkers and anyone curious about rural Norfolk life.
