Map of the UK

Wood Norton is a small, rural parish in the district of North Norfolk, county of Norfolk, England. It sits among rolling arable fields and hedgerows typical of the north Norfolk landscape, with quiet lanes and scattered farmsteads rather than a dense village centre, making it popular with walkers and those seeking a rural retreat while still within reach of larger towns.

Local life is shaped by agriculture and a handful of historic buildings - a parish church and former estate houses feature in the built heritage - and community activity tends to cluster around small-scale events and the village hall. The parish’s character is very much that of a traditional Norfolk settlement: modest population, conservation-minded residents and an economy balanced between farming, local trades and commuting to nearby market towns.
