Stowupland is a village and civil parish in Mid Suffolk, Suffolk, England, set on higher ground overlooking the River Gipping valley just a short distance east of Stowmarket. The name hints at its ridge-top situation and the settlement has a pleasant mix of period cottages and later suburban growth, with views across surrounding arable countryside.
Historically rooted in agriculture and small-scale milling, the village today supports a lively community life with clubs, sports teams and local shops, while many residents commute to nearby centres such as Stowmarket and Ipswich. There are schools, a village hall and small businesses that sustain a quiet, largely residential character alongside occasional local events and conservation-minded interest in its historic buildings.
