Mileham is a charming village set amidst the scenic countryside conveniently positioned along the B1145 between East Dereham and Fakenham, it combines rural tranquillity with rich historical interest. The village is perhaps best known for the ruins of Mileham Castle, a Norman motte-and-bailey fortress constructed shortly after the Norman Conquest. Though only remnants remain, the site speaks to the area's medieval significance and continues to attract local historians and visitors.

Mileham offers a strong sense of community, featuring a blend of traditional cottages and modern homes. Surrounded by open countryside, it provides ample opportunities for walking, cycling, and birdwatching—ideal for those seeking a peaceful escape from urban life. Essential amenities include a Post Office/store, a village hall that hosts various social events, and a church with Peelings Coaches operating a limited private bus service on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Mileham also falls within the catchment area of the highly regarded Litcham School and doctors' surgery, located just 2 miles to the west. Altogether, the village embodies the quiet, enduring character of Norfolk’s rural landscape.
