About Clopton

Clopton is a quaint village and civil parish in Suffolk, situated between Ipswich and Debenham, just two kilometres north of Grundisburgh along the River Lark. The village consists mainly of residential properties lining the B1078, with a rural landscape of farmland surrounding it. Notably, Clopton lacks a distinct centre, with its buildings clustered around four historic manors—Kingshall, Brendhall, Rousehall, and Wascolies—each documented in the Domesday Book of 1086, making it a site of interest for planning applications. The settlement has a population of approximately 332 (2021 estimate). It sits within the Suffolk Coastal district.

There are currently no active flood warnings for the Clopton area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.

In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (September 2026). This makes Clopton a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
