Barford and Wramplingham
are adjacent rural villages about 9 miles from Norwich and 4 miles from Wymondham. Currently undergoing a
Village Plan Project, These delightful, friendly and enterprising villages have many local amenities, including 2 beautiful churches, a Village Hall, a Pub, etc. The population is around 520 people of all ages. There is ample opportunity to get involved in local policy making, local clubs and societies, and social groups. There is a Village Hall committee who look after, plan events for, and work hard to improve the Village Hall and playing fields. There are other groups, such as the well attended Women’s Institute , a very popular Play Group, an Aerobics class (7-8 Mondays at VH), a Ballroom dancing class, a Golden Days club for retired people (alternate wednesdays 2.15 to 4.15pm - ) and a very hard working and constructive Parish Council, led by Tony Bone. The River Tiffey flows through the 2 villages, continuing a link that has existed for hundreds of years. This attracts birds and other wildlife in amazing variety, and there are so many opportunities for walks etc., and the Churches and other amenities, such as Barford Lakes offer a peace and tranquility of amazing quality. (These are fishing lakes, and thus have restrictions applied).
So there, in a nutshell, is the place we love to live in, and we look forward to welcoming visitors!
