Felbrigg is a village and civil parish in the English county of Norfolk.
Felbrigg is located south-west of Cromer and north of Norwich.
Felbrigg's name is of Viking origin and derives from the Old Norse for a plank bridge.
Felbrigg parish has been the site of the discovery of several Roman artefacts including pottery, coins, brooches and a figurine of Priapus. Despite this, no conclusive evidence of a Roman settlement has been identified.
In the Domesday Book, Felbrigg is listed as a settlement of 6 households in the hundred of North Erpingham. In 1086, the village formed part of the East Anglian estates of Roger Bigod.
According to the 2021 census, Felbrigg has a population of 201 people which shows an increase from the 193 people recorded in the 2011 census.
Felbrigg sits along the B1436, between Cromer and Thorpe Market.
Felbrigg Woods is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and is mainly within the grounds and estate of Felbrigg Hall. The woods mainly consist of common beech trees, with many rare species of lichen.
Felbrigg's parish church is dedicated to Saint Margaret of Antioch and dates from the early 15th century with extensive 19th-century restoration. St. Margaret's is located outside of the village, deep within the grounds of Felbrigg Hall, and has been Grade II listed since 1960.
St Margaret's has examples of memorials to historical owners of Felbrigg Hall, notably a carved plaque to William Windham (died 1696) by Grinling Gibbons and a carved bust of William Windham by Joseph Nollekens. The church also holds a significant collection of medieval bronzes, which has been noted as one of the best in Norfolk.
Felbrigg Hall was first built in the seventeenth century in Jacobean style by Robert Lyminge, with an interior completed in the Georgian style. The hall was later adapted by William Samwell and, later, James Paine. The hall was the home of the Windham and Ketton-Cremer families until the death of its last, heirless owner R. W. Ketton-Cremer when the property passed to the ownership of the National Trust.
Felbrigg is part of the electoral ward of Roughton for local elections and is part of the district of North Norfolk.
The village's national constituency is North Norfolk, which has been represented by the Liberal Democrat Steff Aquarone MP since 2024.
