"Tuddenham St Mary is situated between Cavenham and Barton Mills, 3 ½ miles southeast of Mildenhall and 9 miles northwest of Bury St Edmunds.
The name, Tuddenham, dates back to AD 854 and is derived from the Anglo Saxon ‘Tudda’s home’.
St Mary’s church comprises a chancel, nave, tower and south aisle and dates mainly from the 14th century. The church is built of stone, flint and rubble. It underwent a thorough restoration in 1876 which included a new roof, new pews and a new organ.
Tuddenham’s chapel dates from 1952. It replaced an older flint building which was damaged by a second world war bomb and later demolished."
