Barsham is a small, rural civil parish in the district of North Norfolk in the county of Norfolk, England. It comprises a handful of scattered hamlets and lanes set among arable fields and pastures, traditionally driven by farming and still retaining a low population and quiet, village-like character; the market town of Fakenham and the Norfolk coast are within easy reach.
The area is notable for its historic buildings, most famously the Tudor manor East Barsham Hall, alongside medieval churches and timber-framed cottages, which give the parish a strong sense of heritage. Its tranquillity, country walks and wildlife make it popular with walkers and birdwatchers, while local social life centres on farm activities and village events, with heritage and conservation interests fairly prominent.
