Taverham is a large village and civil parish in Norfolk, in England.

It has seen recent population growth with the building of Thorpe Marriott, a new residential development that straddles the boundary with the neighbouring village of Drayton.

The patron saint of Taverham is St Walstan who according to legend lived and worked in the village in the 11th century.

Taverham also has a village hall, library, recreational ground (park), church, scout and guide hut (which also serves as the home of the local day-care centre), several takeaway shops and two pubs: the Silver Fox and, in Thorpe Marriott, the Otter.

Set in woodland on the Ringland Road, Taverham, is Roundwood, an indoor bowling centre with bar and function room.

The first recorded mention of Taverham is thought to have been made in the time of Edward the Confessor.

In 1830 the paper mill, the property of the Ansted family and under the management of John Burgess, husband of Elizabeth Ansted, was attacked during the Swing Riots; a gardener, Robert West, was transported to Australia for his part in the riot.
