Whitton is a small, rural civil parish in Mid Suffolk, in the county of Suffolk, England. The parish is characterised by gently rolling arable fields, hedged lanes and small copses; agriculture remains the mainstay of the local economy, with scattered farms and very little in the way of industry or large commercial centres.
With medieval roots, the settlement retains a quiet, historic feel - a parish church and a handful of older, often timber‑framed buildings hint at its past - and community life tends to revolve around local events, parish meetings and links with nearby market towns for shops and services. The surrounding countryside is valued for its wildlife, seasonal farmland birds and informal footpaths that give the area a peaceful, close‑knit character.
