Queen's Hills is a relatively recent residential neighbourhood on the edge of South Norfolk in Norfolk, England, set within what was formerly farmland. The development provides a mix of family housing, green corridors and local amenities, and was planned with community facilities such as schools, small shops and play areas to serve a largely family-oriented population.
Geographically it occupies slightly higher ground for the area, so residents can still enjoy views across the surrounding countryside and the nearby valley of the River Tas. Economically and socially it functions as a commuter-friendly suburb for Norwich while remaining closely connected to nearby market towns like Wymondham and Hethersett, with active local groups and easy access to footpaths and the wider Norfolk landscape.
