Smallburgh is a small rural parish in North Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk, England. It sits on the edge of the Broads landscape close to the River Ant, with low-lying farmland, drainage ditches and patches of wetland that draw birdlife and make the area popular for quiet boating and wildlife-watching within the broader Broads National Park setting.

The settlement has medieval roots and retains a parish church and a number of traditional flint-and-brick buildings; agriculture remains a backbone of the local economy, complemented by small-scale tourism and commuters to nearby towns such as Aylsham and Norwich. Social life is typical of a Norfolk village, centred on the pub, village hall and occasional local events, reflecting a close-knit community with strong ties to the surrounding landscape and rural heritage.
