About our Parish
The civil parish of Burgh and Tuttington in Norfolk lies to the east of Aylsham, to the south of Colby, to the north of Brampton and to the west of Skeyton. The two villages in the parish, Burgh-next-Aylsham and Tuttington are just over one mile apart; both sit within the area administered by Broadland District Council.
​
The known history of the villages begins with a number of Neolithic Archaeological sites and a wealth of Bronze Age material. There also exists Iron Age, Roman and Saxon evidence in the Parish.
​
The two parishes of Burgh-next-Aylsham and Tuttington were originally separate, with St Marys church sitting by the River Bure and serving Burgh; St Peter and St Paul church on the old main Norwich to Cromer road for Tuttington. Now, St Marys in Burgh is part of the Aylsham and District benefice while Tuttington is part of the Kings Beck benefice.
Burgh has its own village hall known as the Reading Room which is situated beside the church. Tuttington has a small village green which is used for the social events. Both are now peaceful villages that hold their own community events such as fetes, commemorations and open garden days.
