About St Andrew's Church, Bramfield

The historic and rural village of Bramfield lies just a few miles from the picturesque popular coastal towns of Southwold and Aldeburgh. With good links to Ipswich, London and beyond, this is a well-sized village of 490 folk, where you can enjoy peaceful country life, alongside the bustle of modern life. Bramfield village has a popular butcher’s and shop for everyday needs. The recently refurbished and revived village pub – The Queen’s Head - is at the centre of the village. The Church of England Primary school serves the surrounding community as well as Bramfield. There is also a village hall and active parish council. The village hall is well appointed and regularly hosts (among other things) indoor bowls, china painting, bingo, Circle 67 rehearsals, Thursday Lunch Club and Halesworth Duplicate Bridge Club.

With its unique detached Norman round tower and thatched roof, the medieval parish church of St Andrew is a must-see delight on any tour of Suffolk churches. Step inside, and the visitor is uplifted by the beautiful painted and carved wooden screen, c.1500. Along with the later monuments and glass in the chancel, this is a church of art historical interest and one which has been the focus of community life in Bramfield for centuries.  The church stands opposite the distinctive crinkle-crankle brick wall marking the boundary of the gardens and grounds of Bramfield Hall.  The church itself is in good repair, having had extensive work done to the thatched roof in recent years, and has just had a new heating boiler installed. We manage to pay our annual Parish Share in full. The large churchyard is well tended thanks to the generosity of villagers past and present who contribute to the Churchyard Maintenance Fund.
