Brundish is a small village of some 70 houses in what is known locally as ‘High Suffolk,’ in the north eastern corner of the Mid Suffolk District Council area.  Situated roughly mid way between Framlingham and Stradbroke, it has a church - St Lawrence’s - and a public house – 'The Crown'. It also has a thriving Village Hall which is home to an IT Training Centre.

The village is somewhat spread out and scattered, mainly falling into two parts. The main part is scattered alongside the B1118 which runs East to West through the centre of the village, and then Brundish Street which runs Northwards towards Laxfield from the crossroads at the western end of the village.  The River Alde rises in the parish and meanders past the church.

It was largely an arable farming community in the past and did in fact have three windmills of its own, all now sadly gone. But it has developed over the years into a residential community that still retains a large farming area around it, most of the smaller farms of the past having been incorporated into larger farms.

Apart from that you may think it is a sleepy village but surprisingly it has many things to offer; there are lots of thriving businesses and home industries, together with a good choice of self catering and B&B accommodation within and around the village.

An exciting new project within the community which has been overseen by the Parish Council, was the creation of a Village Green on land adjacent to the centre of the village which is has now been completed and is in use. This project  has added to the amenities available to the Parish and its residents. A village sign has been designed and installed on the green to provide a sense of identity and focus.

The Parish Council meets every two months in Brundish Village Hall; the meeting dates are listed separately.
