Haughley is a small village and civil parish in Mid Suffolk, Suffolk, England, lying a few miles north of Stowmarket and close to the A14 corridor. Set in gently rolling arable countryside, it retains a distinctly rural character while being within easy commuting distance of larger towns and rail connections.
The village is best known for the earthworks of Haughley Castle, a Norman motte-and-bailey that survives as a prominent Scheduled Ancient Monument, and for its historic parish church of St Mary and timber-framed buildings that hint at a long history recorded as far back as the Domesday Book. Today the local economy mixes agriculture and small businesses, with a strong community life centred on village amenities and occasional local events, making it a peaceful spot with visible layers of history.
