Worlington in West Suffolk, Suffolk, England is a small rural village and civil parish a few miles north of Mildenhall and within easy reach of Bury St Edmunds. It lies on low-lying arable countryside by the River Lark and the fen-edge landscape that characterises this part of East Anglia, giving it a quietly scenic, agricultural setting.

Historically an agricultural community with timber-framed houses and a medieval parish church, the village today retains a tight-knit social life centred on local amenities and events; the population is only a few hundred and many residents combine local farming with commuting to nearby towns or work at the nearby airbase, RAF Mildenhall, while listed buildings and winding lanes preserve a strong sense of history.
