About

Erpingham ward covers a large rural area in North Norfolk, centred on the historic market town of Aylsham. The landscape is characterised by open farmland, small villages, and the meandering course of the River Bure. Agriculture remains a key part of the local economy, with the area maintaining a quiet, village-focused character away from the busier coastal resorts.

The area is known for the Blickling Hall estate, a grand Jacobean mansion with extensive gardens and a historic parkland. Smaller settlements like Cawston and Erpingham itself feature notable medieval churches, such as Cawston's with its distinctive hammerbeam roof. The Bure Valley Path, following a former railway line, provides a popular walking and cycling route through the countryside.
