About Fakenham Magna
Fakenham Magna is a quaint village and civil parish located in the West Suffolk district of Suffolk, England. Its name, derived from Old English, translates to "Facca's homestead," while "Magna," meaning "great" in Latin, distinguishes it from the larger Fakenham in Norfolk.

This charming locale may present various opportunities for planning applications, reflecting its rich history and community character. The settlement has a population of approximately 159 (2021 estimate). It sits within the St Edmundsbury district.
