Wicklewood is a largely rural electoral ward centred on the eponymous village in South Norfolk, Norfolk, England. It covers a patchwork of arable fields, hedgerows and small hamlets typical of South Norfolkâs lowland landscape and sits within easy reach of larger settlements such as Wymondham and the city of Norwich, which many residents use for work and services.
Locally the ward has a strong village character: a medieval parish church, a cluster of historic cottages and farm buildings, and community focal points like the village hall and the local pub that host fetes and activities. Economically it remains tied to agriculture while also accommodating commuters and small local businesses, and conservation of listed buildings and the rural environment is an ongoing local concern.
