Coddenham is an old village – going back to the Romans – in Mid Suffolk, it isn’t far from both the A140 and the A14 and has tight bends and narrow streets not meant for heavy traffic. I visited early on a morning when they were having a flower festival and some people were getting everything ready to serve coffees.
The tower is in an unusual place which might mean an earlier church was in a slightly different position.
The porch sits slightly at an angel to the church so that it faces directly up the road to the village
The church is wide with side aisles and a long chancel and clerestory windows let in lots of light
A couple of the lovely flower arrangements
And two of the stained glass windows
Memorial from 1855
Old clock mechanism on display in the church
Along with the flower festival they had a small display of old photos and information about the village
Stairs to the Rood Screen mentioned above
Just a short visit but much more about the church on the Suffolk Churches Index HERE
