About

Marshes ward covers a rural expanse in the northern part of Broadland, characterised by its low-lying landscape shaped by the River Bure and its tributaries. The area is primarily agricultural, with fields and grazing pastures intersected by drainage dykes and hedgerows. Settlement is dispersed, consisting of small villages and isolated farmsteads connected by narrow country lanes. The physical environment is defined by its open skies and flat horizons.

The name directly references the historical wetland character of the land before widespread drainage. This legacy is evident in the network of watercourses and the presence of areas of conservation interest for wetland birds. The community is served by local village halls and churches, with economic activity centred on farming and land management. The quiet, working nature of the land is a defining aspect.
