Ditchingham is a village and civil parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England, lying beside the River Waveney close to the Suffolk town of Bungay and on the edge of The Broads. Its riverside setting gives pleasant walks, boating opportunities and a landscape of meadows and old waterways that speak to a long history of river trade and agriculture.

There’s a strong local community centred on a historic parish church, village amenities and a mix of listed houses and a notable country house, Ditchingham Hall. The local economy remains rooted in farming and small businesses, with tourism and commuting to Norwich also important, while conservation groups and village clubs keep social life active.
