About

West Flegg ward encompasses a largely rural area on the northern outskirts of Great Yarmouth. The landscape is dominated by agricultural land and the broad, open skies typical of the Norfolk Broads fringe. Settlements here are small and scattered, with villages like Ormesby St Margaret and Rollesby providing local centres. The area's character is defined by its flat topography and a network of narrow lanes connecting farms and homes.

A significant feature is the interconnected group of broads, including Ormesby Broad and Rollesby Broad, which are popular for sailing and fishing. The ward's eastern boundary runs close to the North Sea coast, though it is primarily separated by the holiday park developments of California and Scratby. This creates a distinct contrast between the quiet inland parishes and the seasonal coastal activity just beyond its borders.
