Map of the UK

Trunch is an electoral ward in the district of North Norfolk, in rural Norfolk in eastern England. Centred on the small village of the same name, the ward encompasses surrounding farmland and hamlets a short distance inland from the North Norfolk coast and within easy reach of the market town of North Walsham, giving it a mix of traditional agricultural activity and residents who travel to nearby towns for work and services.

Locally the area retains a strong village character, with historic buildings, a parish church and community amenities that host seasonal events and voluntary groups; there is also interest in landscape conservation and low‑key rural tourism because of its coastal and countryside setting. Politically the ward elects representatives to the district council and typically focuses on issues common across North Norfolk, such as rural services, housing for local people and managing the local environment.
