Gipping (electoral ward) is a largely residential ward in Ipswich, Suffolk, England, taking its name from the nearby River Gipping. It comprises a mix of post‑war and Victorian housing, local shops and schools, and sits within easy reach of the town centre, so it feels suburban but well connected by buses and local roads.
The ward has a quietly civic character: pockets of green space and community centres serve a diverse population, and its history is tied to the river and the town’s industrial past rather than any single landmark. Local councillors represent the area on Ipswich Borough Council, and community groups often focus on neighbourhood improvement, youth provision and maintaining open spaces.
