Edgefield is a small rural village and civil parish in North Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk, England, lying a few miles inland from the North Norfolk Coast and within easy reach of the market town of Holt and seaside places such as Cromer and Sheringham. It occupies gently rolling arable countryside with hedged lanes and footpaths, making it popular with walkers and birdwatchers who appreciate the quieter side of the county.
Historically agricultural, Edgefield retains a compact parish community with a mix of traditional cottages and later housing; the local economy still leans on farming while many residents commute to nearby towns or work in tourism and conservation. Social life tends to revolve around village gatherings, church and community events, and the village’s unhurried rural character attracts people seeking country living close to the coast.
