Horringer is a small village and civil parish on the western edge of Bury St Edmunds in West Suffolk, set in rolling Suffolk countryside and largely framed by agricultural farmland and the parkland of Ickworth.
Its character mixes a historic core of older houses and a medieval parish church with the grand 19th‑century country seat of Ickworth House - long associated with the Hervey family and now managed by the National Trust - and a modern commuter population; locally the economy is centred on farming, heritage tourism and village services, with an active parish community and occasional cultural events.
