Trunch

Trunch is a rural ward in North Norfolk, covering a small area of agricultural land and scattered settlements. The landscape is primarily characterised by open farmland and gentle topography, with a network of quiet country lanes connecting its parts. The population is dispersed, with the main focus being the village of Trunch itself, which serves as the central point for the surrounding hamlets and farms.

The ward's historical core is marked by the notable Church of St. Botolph, a large 15th-century building with a distinctive hammerbeam roof and detached bell tower. This architectural feature is a significant local landmark. Economic activity remains closely tied to the land, with arable farming defining much of the area's character and views. The setting is quiet and removed from the coastal tourist centres further north.
