Welcome to Middleton

Middleton is a small village located in the county of Suffolk, England. It is situated approximately 5 miles east of the town of Sudbury and 10 miles west of the town of Ipswich. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is home to a number of historic buildings and landmarks. Middleton has a population of around 500 people and is a close-knit community with a strong sense of local pride.

One of the most notable landmarks in Middleton is the parish church of St. Mary's. This beautiful church dates back to the 14th century and is a fine example of medieval architecture. The church is open to visitors and is well worth a visit for anyone interested in history or architecture. Another historic building in the village is Middleton Hall, a Grade II listed building that dates back to the 16th century. The hall is now used as a residential care home but is still an impressive sight to behold.

Middleton is also home to a number of local businesses, including a village shop, a post office, and a pub. The village shop is a great place to pick up essentials and is run by friendly and welcoming staff. The pub, The Bell Inn, is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike and serves a range of delicious food and drink.
