Horringer is a small village and civil parish a couple of miles west of Bury St Edmunds in the borough of West Suffolk, Suffolk, England. It sits amid gently rolling arable countryside and parkland, forming a quiet rural community within easy commuting distance of the larger market town.
The village’s history is visible in its church and a number of 17th–19th‑century houses and it has long links with the Hervey family and nearby Ickworth, whose estate and Ickworth House bring cultural interest and visitors. Today Horringer retains village amenities and a strong community spirit, with much of the local economy tied to farming, small businesses and commuting to neighbouring towns.
