Timworth is a tiny, rural civil parish in West Suffolk, Suffolk, England, set among rolling arable fields and hedgerows a short distance from the market town of Bury St Edmunds and the smaller settlement of Ixworth. It feels characteristically quiet and agricultural, with a landscape of farms, lanes and small copses rather than significant commercial centres.

The village has a quietly historic character, with older farm buildings and parish-scale heritage that hint at medieval roots, and a small, close-knit community with limited local amenities; many residents work on the land or commute to nearby towns. Its lanes and footpaths make it attractive for countryside walks and it sits within the wider conservation-minded countryside of Suffolk.
