Location

Claxtons Close is a small residential cul-de-sac within the village of Mileham, set in open mid-Norfolk countryside between the market towns of Dereham, Fakenham and Swaffham. The village is arranged around the B1145 and retains a straightforward rural character, with open fields at its edges and a scattering of traditional homes and newer infill development. Day-to-day needs are covered locally by a village shop with post office, a church and a village hall that hosts regular community activities. A wider range of supermarkets, independent shops, cafés and services can be found in Dereham and Fakenham, both within a reasonable drive.

For families, the nearest school is Litcham School, an all-through primary and secondary school located in the neighbouring village of Litcham. Other primary provision is available in surrounding villages, with additional secondary options in Dereham and Swaffham.

Transport is primarily road-based. The B1145 connects Mileham to the A47 at Swaffham and to Dereham, providing onward routes towards King’s Lynn and Norwich. Bus services run through the village linking it to nearby towns, although services are limited in frequency, so most residents rely on private vehicles. There is no railway station in Mileham itself; the nearest stations are in larger towns such as King’s Lynn or Norwich.
