Denton is a small rural civil parish in South Norfolk in Norfolk, England. It sits amid the arable countryside typical of the East of England, with quiet lanes, hedgerows and traditional cottages; a historic parish church and a number of older farmhouses reflect its long agricultural past.
The local economy remains largely agricultural, though many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Harleston and Diss or to Norwich for work. Community life tends to revolve around the village church, occasional social events and the surrounding lanes and footpaths, which make Denton a peaceful spot popular with walkers and those seeking a rural lifestyle.
