Old Newton is a small village in the agricultural heart of Mid Suffolk, within the county of Suffolk in England. Tucked into gently rolling countryside, it sits not far from the market town of Stowmarket and within easy reach of Ipswich, making it a quiet rural community with straightforward links to larger centres.

The village retains a strong rural character, with surrounding arable farmland and hedged lanes, and a local community centred on village facilities, the parish scene and occasional local events. Historically it reflects typical Suffolk village development with older buildings and farming roots; economically it remains tied to agriculture and small local enterprises, while many residents commute to nearby towns for work and services.
