About

Great Cornard is a residential ward situated on the outskirts of Sudbury. It consists largely of housing estates developed in the latter half of the 20th century, providing homes for many who commute to the larger town. The area includes several local shops, schools, and community facilities catering to daily needs. Its landscape is characterised by gentle slopes and areas of open green space.

A notable feature is the Valley Walk, a footpath following the old railway line that once connected Sudbury to Marks Tey. This route provides a direct green corridor for walking and cycling into the town centre. The ward is bounded by the River Stour to the north, separating it from Sudbury itself, and contains areas of woodland and playing fields that offer local recreational space.
