About

The Reepham, Cawston & Lenwade area lies in the heart of rural Broadland, characterised by arable farmland, small woodlands, and gentle river valleys. The settlements are connected by quiet country lanes, with Reepham serving as the central market town. The landscape is defined by the River Wensum, which flows through Lenwade, and areas of historical parkland. Agriculture remains a visible part of the local economy, shaping the open views and patchwork of fields between the villages.

Reepham is notable for its two churches sharing a single churchyard, a historical legacy of separate parishes. Cawston features a prominent medieval church with a distinctive hammerbeam roof. Lenwade, historically a crossing point on the Wensum, has industrial heritage linked to milling and later concrete production. The area is traversed by the Marriott's Way, a recreational path following the course of a former railway line through the countryside.
