Brancaster is a village and civil parish on the north coast of the English county of Norfolk. The civil parish of Brancaster comprises Brancaster itself, together with Brancaster Staithe and Burnham Deepdale.

The villages are located about 3 miles west of Burnham Market, 22 miles north of the town of King's Lynn and 31 miles north-west of the city of Norwich.[1]
The civil parish has an area of 8.27 square miles and in the 2011 census had a population of 797 in 406 households. For the purposes of local government, the parish falls within the district of King's Lynn and West Norfolk.[2] Janet Lake, the clerk to Brancaster Parish Council, has recently reached 50 years of service in the post.
