Griston is a village and civil parish in the Wayland area of the Breckland district of Norfolk, England.

It hosts part of the RAF Watton wartime airfield (now belonging to the USAAF), and the Category C Wayland Prison.

The villages name origin is uncertain possibly "Griss's farm/settlement" or perhaps "young pig farm/settlement".

As part of the Sustrans Connect2 project proposals are in place to create a cycling and walking route between Griston and the market town of Watton.

The new route would follow the boundary of the Watton airfield and provide a shorter, traffic free alternative to the A1075.
