Wrentham is a village and civil parish in the East Suffolk district of Suffolk, England, set on the gentle agricultural plain a few miles from the Suffolk coast. It sits within easy reach of coastal towns such as Southwold and Lowestoft, giving a mix of rural tranquillity and convenient links to seaside amenities.
Historically the settlement has medieval roots and a compact village core of older buildings, and its economy remains largely tied to farming with many residents commuting to nearby towns. Local life centres on the parish church, a village pub, primary school and community hall, with regular clubs and an annual fete that contribute to a notably strong community spirit.
