Welcome to Wingfield

Wingfield is a small village located in the county of Suffolk, England. It is situated approximately 10 miles north of the town of Framlingham and 20 miles east of the city of Ipswich. The village is known for its historic church, Wingfield Church, which dates back to the 14th century. The church is a Grade I listed building and is considered to be one of the finest examples of medieval architecture in the county.

In addition to its historic church, Wingfield is also home to a number of other notable buildings and landmarks. These include Wingfield Castle, a 12th-century castle that was once the home of the De la Pole family, and Wingfield College, a former religious college that was founded in the 14th century. Today, the college is a private residence and is not open to the public.

Despite its small size, Wingfield has a strong sense of community and is home to a number of local businesses and amenities. These include a village hall, a post office, and a pub, The Wingfield Arms, which is popular with locals and visitors alike. The village also hosts a number of events throughout the year, including an annual fete and a Christmas market, which help to bring the community together and attract visitors from further afield.
