Thorpe Marriott is a residential area in Norfolk, England covering part of Taverham and Drayton parishes.
Although lacking its own school, surgery, post office or chemist, Thorpe Marriott holds a church and the Otter public house.
Broadland District Council first earmarked the 380 acre site for development in 1986.
