Tibenham is a small rural village and civil parish in South Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk, lying around twelve miles south‑west of Norwich. It’s typical of the broad, open farmland of south Norfolk, with arable fields, pockets of ancient woodland and a compact village core; the medieval parish church and a village hall help keep a close‑knit community spirit despite its modest population.
One of the parish’s most striking features is the nearby wartime airfield, RAF Tibenham, which served the Allied effort in the Second World War and remains a visible reminder of that history while also attracting occasional flying and heritage events. Economy and daily life are largely agricultural, with many residents commuting to larger towns; locally there are community groups and seasonal activities that keep village life lively without losing its rural calm.
