Map of the UK

Hedenham is a small, quietly picturesque village and civil parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England, set amid rolling arable fields and pockets of mixed woodland. Its lanes, hedgerows and scattered farmsteads give it a strong rural character, and it sits within easy reach of the fringe of the Norfolk Broads and the Suffolk border.

Locally the economy is dominated by farming and a mix of smallholdings, with some historic cottages and converted barns alongside more modern homes; many residents commute to larger centres such as Norwich or the nearby market town of Bungay. The village retains a quiet, traditional feel, with a medieval-rooted landscape and a close-knit community rather than any large commercial centre.
