Alby with Thwaite is a small, rural civil parish in North Norfolk, Norfolk, England, made up of the tiny hamlets of Alby and Thwaite. It sits amid arable fields, hedgerows and quiet lanes, with a scattering of traditional cottages and farmsteads that give the area a distinctly agricultural, low‑density character.
Historically rooted in farming, the local economy remains largely agricultural with some residents commuting to nearby market towns; village life is quietly centred on the parish church and occasional community events. The parish attracts walkers and people who enjoy the peaceful Norfolk countryside rather than busy tourist hubs.
