About

Claydon & Barham ward encompasses a collection of villages and hamlets set within the open, gently rolling countryside of central Suffolk. The area is primarily agricultural, with large arable fields and working farms defining the landscape. Settlements like Great Blakenham and Barham are characterised by traditional housing and local community amenities, serving as focal points for the surrounding rural population. The ward's road network connects these communities while maintaining a distinctly pastoral character.

A notable feature is the presence of the former Great Blakenham clay pits, which have been extensively landscaped. These transformed quarries now form a significant area of lakes and woodland, creating a distinct topographical contrast to the surrounding farmland. The ward is traversed by the River Gipping, which follows a course through the parishes, adding a linear watercourse to the environment. This blend of active agriculture, reclaimed industrial land, and natural waterways defines the area's practical and varied land use.
