Wangford is a small village and civil parish in East Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, England. It sits in gently rolling agricultural countryside a short distance from the Suffolk coast and market towns such as Southwold and Beccles, giving it a mix of rural tranquillity and relatively easy access to coastal amenities.

The wider parish includes the large country estate of Henham Park, whose parkland hosts the annual Latitude Festival and brings a seasonal cultural and economic boost to the locality; otherwise the area remains traditionally agricultural with a small, close‑knit community and a number of historic buildings reflecting its long rural heritage.
