Stanton village is situated about nine miles north-east of Bury St. Edmunds, on the A143 road to Diss. The former WW II airfield RAF Shepherds Grove, where American forces were based, is nearby. The village lies at the junction of the Peddars Way and dates back to Roman times. The present parish was formed from two earlier parishes, Stanton All Saints and Stanton St John, with John's church having been abandoned in the process.
