Map of the UK

Claydon is a village and civil parish in Mid Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, England. It sits on gently rolling arable countryside typical of East Anglia and is within easy commuting distance of Ipswich and Stowmarket.

Historically an agricultural community, Claydon still shows its rural roots in scattered farms, period cottages and a parish church, while a handful of small businesses and commuter households have diversified the local economy. The village has the sort of community facilities - village hall, pub and primary school - that support a lively calendar of fetes, clubs and local initiatives, and several listed buildings hint at a long local history without feeling like a museum piece.
