Brooke is a small rural village and civil parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England. Set amid rolling farmland and narrow lanes, it retains a compact, village feel with a scattering of historic cottages and a medieval parish church that hints at its long local history.
The local economy is still largely agricultural, though many residents commute to nearby Norwich; social life tends to revolve around the village hall, pub and occasional community events, while a handful of listed buildings and quiet footpaths make it appealing to walkers and those interested in Norfolkâs rural heritage.
