Icklingham, Suffolk

Flower Delivery to Icklingham with Clare Florist

Icklingham is a small village in the county of Suffolk, with a population of less than 500. The village was once one of the largest Anglo-Saxon settlements in the area, and was a site of Roman settlers, even still housing a Roman-Catholic graveyard. The buildings, especially the homes, of Icklingham are easily characterised by their pale brick, and flint cottages. Unfortunately, many of the once-populated buildings in the area are no longer active, but the village itself is a sight to see, almost as though you’re taking a step back in time to appreciate quaint cottage architecture, and the beautiful designs of the All Saint Church that lays on the land.

The county of Suffolk, surrounding Icklingham offers a wide range of activities to fit nearly everyone’s tastes, of all ages.

For a day with the family, try the Suffolk Punch Trust. The Suffolk Punch is a local horse breed, and the Trust is home to the oldest stud farm for this breed, dating back 250 years. The Suffolk Punch was originally bred for farming, but it’s unique chestnut colour and beautiful displays of strength have made it somewhat of a mascot for the county. Along with the horses, the Trust is home to sheep, cattle, and and pigs. They often have demonstrations and events lined up, appealing to both children and adults.

If you’re planning a romantic getaway or are a history buff who loves to go exploring, Suffolk is certainly the area for you. While the towns and villages themselves (including, of course, Icklingham) are bursting with historical buildings, Suffolk is also home to Sutton Hoo, an Anglo-Saxon king burial site.

To get away from the more populated areas and enjoy all nature has to offer, take a walk through the Suffolk Gardens; a beautiful display of floral beauty beaming against paved pathways, rare plants, flowers, and trees are found in this wondrous garden, making it a true nature-enthusiasts delight.
