WELCOME

Great Massingham is a stunning village nestling in the West Norfolk countryside.

​

Several large ponds dominate the village, some of which have their origins as the fish ponds for an 11th century Augustinian Abbey.

​

The village’s origins are thought to go back to the 5th century, but today it is still a thriving community with a Village Shop and Post Office, Tea Room, Village Hall, Social Club and Bar, Sports including Tennis and Bowling and a Pub, The Dabbling Duck. We also have excellent Preschool and Primary Schools.  The village church, St Mary’s has represented the focal point of village life for hundreds of years.

.
