About

Walsingham ward encompasses a collection of rural villages and farmland centred around the historic pilgrimage site of Little Walsingham. The area is defined by its agricultural landscape, with fields and quiet country lanes connecting settlements like Great Walsingham and Houghton St Giles. The River Stiffkey flows through the northern part of the ward.

The village of Little Walsingham contains the ruins of a medieval priory and is known for its Anglican and Roman Catholic shrines, drawing visitors throughout the year. The local economy is significantly shaped by this religious heritage and associated tourism, alongside traditional farming. The narrow, medieval street layout in the village centre remains largely preserved.
