Central Wymondham ward encompasses the historic core of the market town, centred around its distinctive medieval church with twin towers. The area includes the main commercial streets with independent shops and services, alongside residential neighbourhoods of varying ages. The River Tiffey flows through the southern part of the ward, providing a green corridor.

The ward is defined by its connection to the past, with the ancient Market Cross and timber-framed buildings lining the streets. Local life focuses on the market square and the library, which serves as a community hub. The preserved railway station building on Station Road is a reminder of the town's importance as a junction on the former Wymondham to Forncett line.
