Flixton is a small rural parish in East Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, England. Nestled close to the Norfolk border and near the market town of Bungay, it occupies a quiet patch of arable farmland and riverside meadows beside the River Waveney, with lanes and footpaths popular with walkers and wildlife enthusiasts.
Historically an agricultural community, the parish retains a handful of historic buildings and traditional farmsteads; local services are limited so residents commonly rely on nearby towns, but a strong village spirit and small-scale conservation and community activities give the place a character typical of rural Suffolk life.
