Thorpe Marriott is a residential area in Norfolk, England covering part of Taverham and Drayton parishes. Much of its housing was built during the latter quarter of the 20th century.

It enjoys the amenities of both parishes, which are easily accessible from Fakenham Road (A1047). Although lacking its own school, surgery, post office or chemist, Thorpe Marriott holds a church and the Otter public house.[1] Marriott's Way passes through it.
