On behalf of the Town Council I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the town of Stowmarket. The town has a fascinating history which can be traced back over a thousand years and we have many interesting historic buildings within the parish including the Church of St Peter and St Mary, the Corn Exchange and the Abbots Hall which is set within the grounds of the Museum of East Anglian Life.

The town sits in a convenient location in the heart of Suffolk and is home to many shops and businesses which make Stowmarket an important financial centre within the county. Stowmarket enjoys frequent rail links to other towns and the centre of London is just 70 minutes away by train.

Stowmarket has so much to offer including good schools, a wide variety of leisure facilities, attractive housing and excellent health provision. This guide provides an excellent introduction to the town. I hope you will find it very informative.

If you require further information please call into the Town Council offices at Milton House, Milton Road South or telephone 01449 612060 or email info@stowmarket.org
