The Port of Norwich is a small port on the River Wensum at Norwich, Norfolk. The use of the river as a port stretches back at least to medieval times, however its current standing as a port dates to an Act of Parliament on 28 May 1827.^[1]

The name Norwich comes from the Middle Saxon north wic meaning "north port" and there is evidence of urban settlement on the north bank from the tenth century.^[2] Norwich was likely founded as a port when the former Roman port of Venta Icenorum three miles to the south silted up.^[3]

The port was still in regular use in the 1960s and 1970s and continued to have some limited traffic in the 2010s.^[4] The port authority is Norwich City Council, who in 2012 stated that they consider the port defunct as a commercial port.^[5]
