Welcome to Trunch Parish Council

The Parish Council currently has 8 Parish Councillors who are elected or co-opted to the Council. Elections take place every four years. The Parish Council meets on the second Tuesday of every month 7pm at the Village Hall.

The public are always welcome to attend our meetings, and at every meeting we allocate 30 minutes dedicated to Public Participation. Please do come along and find out what is going on and help shape the future of Trunch.

Trunch is a village and parish in North Norfolk. This is situated three miles north of North Walsham and two miles from the coast at Mundesley. 

The parish covers 5.5 square kilometres. Our picturesque village centre has the fine medieval church of St. Botolph and a number of typical old Norfolk Flintstone Houses within a designated conservation area. The recorded history of the village goes back to the time of the Domesday Book.
