Little Glemham

Introduction

This village, sometimes referred to as Glemham Parva, is set on the A12 in the valley of the river Alde. It was recorded in Domesday as "Thieue Gliemham". Just north of the settlement is Glemham Hall, a large red brick mansion built about 1715-25, which is set in a large estate and was the home of the Cobbold brewing family for many years.

According to A Survey of Suffolk Parish History, an inn holder was recorded in the parish as long ago as 1642.

A mid-late 18th century watermill stands down a lane off Church Road.
