About

Newton Flotman ward encompasses a primarily rural area within the South Norfolk district. The settlement of Newton Flotman itself is a linear village, stretching along the old main road with a mix of residential properties. The surrounding landscape is characterised by open farmland and the gently meandering course of the River Tas, which flows through the parish. This creates a setting where agriculture remains a visible part of the local environment.

The ward includes the smaller neighbouring community of Swainsthorpe, adding to its residential character. A notable feature is the historic church of St. Mary, with sections dating to the 14th century, situated near the river. The area is traversed by the main Norwich to Ipswich railway line, with the village lying just south of the busy A140 road, connecting it to the broader region while maintaining a separate, quieter identity.
