St Lawrence, Ilketshall is a small, quiet parish in East Suffolk, within the county of Suffolk, England. Set among rolling arable fields and hedgerow-lined lanes, it forms part of the dispersed Ilketshall settlements west of Bungay and close to the Norfolk border, with an economy still largely shaped by farming and small rural enterprises.
The historic heart is marked by the medieval parish church of St Lawrence and a handful of red‑brick cottages and farmhouses; many buildings and the layout of lanes reflect a long rural history. Social life is low-key and community‑centred, with residents often using neighbouring market towns such as Beccles or Bungay for shops and events, while walkers and wildlife enthusiasts appreciate the unspoilt Suffolk countryside.
