About Rushford
Rushford is a quaint village located in the Brettenham parish within the Breckland district of Norfolk, England. Nestled on the north bank of the River Little Ouse, it lies approximately 3.5 miles east of Thetford and south of the A1066 road. Historically, Rushford straddled the border between Norfolk and Suffolk until 1894, with Rushford Hall situated in Suffolk. In 1931, the village had a population of just 94, but it was merged into Brettenham parish in 1935, making it a unique area for planning applications due to its rich historical context and evolving administrative boundaries. It sits within the Brettenham district.
