Stutton is a small village and civil parish in the Babergh district of Suffolk, England, lying a few miles south‑east of Ipswich and within easy reach of the Suffolk Coast. It’s a compact rural settlement set amid arable farmland and rolling countryside, with a cluster of traditional cottages, a medieval parish church and several listed buildings that hint at its long history.

The local economy is largely agricultural, with many residents commuting into Ipswich and nearby market towns; community life centres on the church, village hall and occasional local events. Quiet lanes and nearby coastal and estuarine paths make it popular with walkers and those seeking a low‑key slice of Suffolk character rather than a busy tourist hub.
