Creeting St Mary is a small, rural village and civil parish in Mid Suffolk, Suffolk, England. Set among gently rolling arable countryside, it forms one of the pair of local settlements alongside Creeting St Peter and retains a quiet, low‑density character of lanes, hedgerows and scattered farms rather than any urban centre.
With medieval origins visible in local buildings and the parish church, the area has long been agricultural in character; today that tradition sits alongside small local enterprises and a number of commuters who travel to nearby towns such as Ipswich and Stowmarket. Community life is typical of Suffolk villages, centred on the church and village hall, informal events and countryside pursuits such as walking and birdwatching.
