Our History

Brisley village is a small rural parish situated in the north west of the County of Norfolk, England. The name derives from the old English 'briosa' meaning gad fly and 'leah' a clearing


The village stands on the axis of two important routes running north to south and east to west  between the towns of Fakenham to the north, Dereham to the south, Kings Lynn to the west and Norwich to the east 


The census of 2011 states that the population at that time was 286. The medieval church of St Bartholmew sits firmly in the centre of the village now, as it has done since the Middle Ages


The Church is currently 'at risk' and so we welcome donations from supporters of church charities  


The village is flanked by two Greens, one to the north and the other to the south, combined these Greens make up one of the largest surviving grazing commons in Norfolk  


Our village hall offers a great programme of entertainment
