Hempnall is a compact, rural parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, in the east of England, set among arable fields and hedgerows a short drive south of Norwich. The village cluster includes traditional cottages, a village green and a parish church with medieval origins, and the surrounding landscape is typical gently rolling Norfolk countryside popular with walkers and cyclists.

Local life is centred on a village hall, pub and a range of clubs and societies; historically the area is agricultural, and today that heritage sits alongside commuters and small rural businesses. Listed buildings and historic features hint at a long past, while regular fetes, markets and community events keep a strong social fabric and sense of place.
