Walsham le Willows is a sizeable village and civil parish in Mid Suffolk, in rural Suffolk, England. Sitting along the tree-lined valley of the River Black Bourn, it retains a medieval street pattern, a notable parish church and a fine collection of timber-framed and thatched houses, reflecting its long agricultural and small-market history; the "le Willows" suffix recalls the willow trees along the river.
Today the village combines farming and local businesses with an active community life - a village hall, clubs, a primary school and regular events - and many residents commute to nearby market towns. Conservation areas, heritage buildings and pleasant walking country make it a popular spot for those interested in Suffolk’s rural character and history.
