About

Brooke ward encompasses a largely rural expanse in South Norfolk, featuring a mix of arable farmland and small woodland areas. The settlement pattern is defined by scattered villages and hamlets, with the historic village of Brooke itself at its heart. The landscape is gently undulating, typical of the county, with fields often bordered by hedgerows.

A notable feature is the presence of Brooke Hall, a significant country house set within its own parkland. The area is crossed by several quiet country lanes connecting its communities. Economic activity remains strongly linked to agriculture, alongside some local services catering to residents. The ward maintains a distinct separation from the larger urban areas to the east.
