Brampton is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Brampton with Stoven, in the East Suffolk district, in the county of Suffolk, England. It is around 4miles north-east of Halesworth, 5miles south of Beccles and 5miles north-west of Southwold. In 1961 the parish had a population of 306.[1] On 1 April 1987, the parish was merged with Stoven to form "Brampton with Stoven" parish[2] and the mid-2005 population estimate for the expanded parish was 460.[3]
Stoven is immediately to the east of Brampton, Uggeshall to the south-east and Shadingfield to the north. The village is served by Brampton railway station, a request stop around 1.5miles west of the village, on the Ipswich–Lowestoft East Suffolk Line. The A145 road divides the village and passes the village church which is Grade I listed and dedicated to St Peter.[4] Areas of housing, including at Brampton Street, are clustered on either side of the road throughout the parish area. Brampton Primary School serves the village and the surrounding area.[5]
Brampton Hall is a listed country house built in 1794 of red brick for Rev Naunton Thomas Orgill Leman and the Leman family who had long associations in the area.[6] The previous Brampton Hall burned down in 1733.[7] A 16th century farmhouse was built on the same site, known as Brampton Old Hall. Both buildings are Grade II listed.[8] [9]
