The place

It lies on the Roman road between Felixstowe and Ipswich. Its eastern border is Spriteshall Lane. The village, and its neighbour Trimley St. Martin, are famous for their adjacent churches, which were built as the result of a historical family feud. St. Mary's church is the southerly church. The village has a number of shops, and two pubs. Trimley railway station serves the village on the Felixstowe Branch Line.
