Letheringham is a small, rural parish in East Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, lying close to the River Deben and just a few miles north‑east of Ipswich and near the market town of Woodbridge. The landscape is typical low‑lying East Anglian countryside, with arable fields, hedgerows and a scattered pattern of farms and lanes.

The parish is best known for the atmospheric remains of Letheringham Priory and the earthworks of the old manor, which draw interest from local historians and visitors; economically it remains largely agricultural with many residents commuting to nearby towns. Socially it retains a quiet, close‑knit rural character with a strong sense of local history.
