About

Wickham Market ward encompasses a rural area centred around its namesake village, located roughly midway between Woodbridge and Framlingham. The settlement pattern is characterised by the main village hub and several surrounding smaller hamlets and isolated farms, set within a landscape of gently rolling arable fields and hedgerows. The ward's boundary includes the communities of Hacheston and Letheringham, with the River Deben forming a partial western edge.

The area is defined by its agricultural character and historical connections. The village itself retains a traditional linear layout along its High Street, with a notable large central square that hosts a regular market, continuing a centuries-old charter. This open space, with its mix of local businesses and community facilities, forms the social and commercial focus for the wider ward population. The surrounding lanes connect to scattered residential developments and areas of managed woodland.
