About us

Dennington is a small village in North Suffolk which lies along the A1120. It is a pretty village, well-known for its Church. It has a friendly, thriving community which is reflected in the variety of activites and clubs.

As you enter the village, you cannot miss the Church of St Mary which dominates the centre of the village. Visitors come to see the interior of the Church - some of which dates back to mediaeval times.

Children from the village and the surrounding area attend the Dennington VC Primary school. http://www.dennington-school.org.uk/
Secondary school children are in the catchment area for Sir Thomas Mills High School in Framlingham. http://www.thomasmills.suffolk.sch.uk/

Close to the Church, on the Framlingham Road, is the Jubilee Village Hall which is the centre for village activities.

Dennington Sports Club oversees the sports activites in the village. Behind the Jubilee Hall lies the sports field which is used for football and cricket, along with the Summer Games for the young people of the village and surrounding area. For more details, see the Sports Club page.

For those who are interested in amateur dramatics, there is the Tickled Pink Drama Company. Past productions have been Cinderella, Starlight Revue, Dick Whittington, Babes in the Wood and How it All Began in 2008. All productions played to packed houses and were enjoyed by the local communtiy. For more details, please go to the Tickled Pink webpage.

The Parish Council meets at least five times a year in the Jubilee Village Hall committee room. Everyone is welcome.

In recent times, we have been contacted by those who wish to discover information about members of their family who may have lived in the Parish. Some years ago, it was felt that it was unsafe for such important documents to be stored locally, so they were forwarded to the Suffolk Record Office in Ipswich. If you require any information, you can contact Suffolk Record Office at Gatacre Road , Ipswich IP1 2LQ.
Telephone: 01473 584541
or email: ipswich.ro@libher.suffolkcc.gov.uk 
The office is open 9am to 5pm, six days a week
