Loddon is a small market town and civil parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England, set beside the winding River Chet on the edge of the Norfolk Broads. The river and surrounding marshes have shaped its character for centuries, giving it a compact historic centre with a parish church, riverside boatyards and a legacy of inland trade that still shows in the town’s layout and older buildings.
Today Loddon mixes traditional rural life - agriculture and local services - with a modest tourism economy centred on boating and outdoor pursuits; independent shops, pubs and community amenities keep it lively. It retains a strong community feel, with local clubs, events and a steady stream of visitors enjoying the Broads and quiet riverside walks.
