About

East Bergholt ward encompasses the village of East Bergholt and its surrounding rural landscape in the Babergh district. The area is characterised by its open farmland, woodland, and the River Stour forming part of its boundary. The historic village centre contains a mix of architectural styles, with many buildings constructed from local materials. The parish church is notable for its separate, timber-framed bell cage, a rare survival from the Tudor period.

The ward includes the hamlets of Flatford and Dedham Vale, the latter being part of a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The area is historically associated with the painter John Constable, whose family owned land here. Local footpaths and bridleways connect the settlements through the agricultural land.
