About

Aylsham ward encompasses the historic market town of Aylsham and its immediate surrounding rural parishes. The town centre is characterised by its traditional market square and a mix of independent shops and businesses. Residential areas extend outwards, with housing ranging from older properties near the core to newer developments on the edges. The ward's boundary includes farmland and smaller villages, maintaining a distinct separation from the urban area of Norwich to the south.

The area is defined by the River Bure, which flows through the landscape. A network of public footpaths and the Bure Valley Path connect the town to the broader Norfolk countryside. Local governance and community activities are centred on the town, with several schools serving the population. The ward's economy combines local retail and services with commuter links to the broader Broadland and Norwich region.
