Earsham is a small village and civil parish in South Norfolk, close to the Suffolk border and only a few miles north of Bungay. The parish lies alongside the River Waveney, with low-lying riverside meadows and lanes that reflect its position on the fringe of the Norfolk Broads landscape.
Historically the area was agricultural with milling and small-scale local trades, and traces of that past survive in buildings such as Earsham Mill and the nearby country house Earsham Hall. Today it’s a quiet mix of village community and commuters, with a medieval parish church, attractive riverside walks and the kind of rural character that draws visitors seeking countryside and heritage rather than busy tourist services.
