Newton Flotman is a compact village and civil parish in the district of South Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk, England. It sits in the small valley of the River Tas, surrounded by agricultural land and pockets of woodland, and lies roughly south of Norwich, within easy reach of the market towns of Diss and Long Stratton. The riverside setting and nearby lanes give it a distinctly rural feel while keeping it well connected for commuters to the city and surrounding towns.
Newton Flotman has a long local history reflected in its parish church and traditional village layout, and today combines farming and local services with a lively community life. There is a primary school, a village hall and a range of clubs and events that keep social life active; economically it remains rooted in agriculture and small businesses, with many residents commuting for work to larger centres. The village’s mix of historic character and community amenities makes it a typical but well-regarded example of a Norfolk rural settlement.
