Map of the UK

Rumburgh is a small, rural parish in East Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, England, set among the rolling arable fields and hedgerows that typify this part of East Anglia. It lies a short distance from the market town of Halesworth and not far from the River Blyth; the local economy remains largely agricultural, with many residents commuting to nearby towns for work or services.

Despite its modest size, Rumburgh has a notable past - the site of a medieval priory and a parish church with medieval fabric - which gives the village a strong historic flavour. Today it retains a tight-knit rural community, quiet lanes and farmsteads, and a simple appeal for walkers and anyone interested in traditional Suffolk village life.
