The twin centred pairsh of Fulmodeston-cum-Croxton is situated in central Northern Norfolk just east of the market town of Fakenham and midway between the A1067 Fakenham to Norwich and A149 Fakenham to Cromer roads. The parish does indeed have two centres, Fulmodeston at a cross-roads on the lanes between Stibbard and Barney and Croxton to the west on the back road to Fakenham.

As can be seen St Mary's church, actually situated in Croxton, is now a complete ruin having been abandoned in 1889. The current parish church, Christ Church, is situated at the crossroads in Fulmodeston. St Mary's was apparently a fairly typical example of 14th century Norfolk Perpendicular architecture. Now an ivy-clad ruin it is the haunt of Tawny Owls and foxes. Such is its decay that were it not for the symbol marking its presence on the maps you could walk past without noticing unless your eye catches one of the remaining gravestones alongside the path.
