Map of the UK

The village of Ludham sits in North Norfolk in the county of Norfolk, England, on the edge of the Norfolk Broads. The River Ant runs through the parish, and the surrounding reedbeds, grazing marsh and network of waterways make it a popular spot for boating, fishing and birdwatching; the landscape is very much shaped by water and peatland.

Locally the economy mixes traditional agriculture and reed-cutting with tourism and leisure boating, and the village retains a strong community spirit centred on its church, pub and village hall. Historic interest includes the nearby wartime airfield at RAF Ludham and a scattering of older farmsteads and cottages that reflect the area’s long rural past.
