East Beckham is a very small, rural parish in North Norfolk, Norfolk, England, lying close to its neighbour West Beckham and within easy reach of the North Norfolk coast and the towns of Sheringham and Holt. Its tiny population and scattered farms mean it is often treated together with neighbouring settlements for administrative and census purposes.
The landscape is quintessential Norfolk countryside - arable fields, hedgerows, old farm buildings and a handful of historic cottages - so agriculture remains the mainstay, with many residents commuting to nearby towns or enjoying the area’s walking and birdwatching opportunities. Despite few services of its own, the parish’s quiet character and rural heritage make it a good example of the small, peaceful communities that dot the North Norfolk hinterland.
