Map of the UK

Kirby Cane is a small village and civil parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, sitting in the Waveney Valley close to the Norfolk–Suffolk border. The parish occupies gently rolling farmland and reed-fringed waterways associated with The Broads and the River Waveney, so the landscape blends agricultural fields with wetland habitats and a distinctly rural character.

Its history is visible in older houses and the parish church, and the local economy remains largely agricultural with some small enterprises and commuters to nearby market towns such as Bungay and Beccles or into Norwich. Community life is quiet but engaged, centred on village activities, the hall and conservation-minded efforts to maintain the area’s historic and natural features.
