Rockland St. Mary is a small village and civil parish in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England, set on the south bank of the River Yare a few miles to the south‑east of Norwich. The village sits on the edge of the Broads landscape, with marshy river meadows, reedbeds and quiet waterways that attract boaters and birdwatchers and give the area a distinctly rural, waterside character.
Historically centred on agriculture and modest river trade, Rockland St. Mary retains a strong local community with a village hall, parish church and occasional village events, while many residents now commute into Norwich. Leisure and tourism related to the Norfolk Broads and countryside walking complement the local economy, so the village combines traditional rural roots with a modern commuter and visitor presence.
