Erpingham is an electoral ward in the district of North Norfolk within the county of Norfolk in eastern England. It comprises a patchwork of small villages and hamlets set in gently rolling arable countryside, with an economy still largely shaped by farming alongside local trades, small businesses and some commuting to larger towns for work and services.
The ward has a distinctly rural character, with medieval churches, traditional cottages and field patterns reflecting a long history; the name itself has medieval associations. Community life is centred on parish halls, local events and conservation of historic buildings, while residents benefit from relatively easy access to the scenic Norfolk coast and nearby market centres for additional amenities.
