Directions to the church

The church is at the junction of the B1079 (Grundisburgh Road) and Drabs Lane; the entrance is just inside Drabs Lane. If you come to a church not at a junction, it’s probably Clopton; the two are very close together.
Coming from Ipswich, the easiest way is to take the Tuddenham road through Tuddenham, Culpho and Grundisburgh then turn left onto the B1079 at the T-junction coming out of Grundisburgh. The church is on the right (behind the War Memorial) about a mile further on.
From anywhere else, take the A12 towards Woodbridge, then turn west onto the B1079 at the Wyevales roundabout (signposted Grundisburgh and Hasketon). The church is on the right (behind the War Memorial) about 5 miles further on.
There is a map on our entry in A Church Near You.
