The ward of Normanton sits on the eastern shore of Rutland Water in the county of Rutland, within easy reach of the county town Oakham. It is dominated by the waterside landscape and the much‑photographed church at the water’s edge, with reedbeds and nature reserves nearby that make it a magnet for birdwatchers and walkers.
Locally the area combines a small residential community with holiday and leisure businesses - sailing, angling and cycle routes are important to the local economy - and the village’s historic character and scenic setting mean tourism and conservation are significant parts of social life.
