Map of the UK

Kirby Bedon is a small village and civil parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England, set in rolling arable countryside a short drive south of Norwich. The locality is typical of the county, with hedged lanes, scattered farmsteads and pockets of wet grassland and woodland that give it a distinctly rural feel.

With medieval roots reflected in its traditional buildings and village layout, agriculture has long been important to the local economy, though many residents now commute into nearby towns. The community retains a quiet, close-knit character, and the area is often appreciated for its sense of history, wildlife and easy access to the wider Norfolk countryside.
