About

Sudbury Water Meadows

Sitting alongside the River Stour on Melford Road, Sudbury Water Meadows is a well-known open green space that has drawn visitors to the edge of town for centuries. The meadows have never been ploughed, supporting wild flowers, grazing cattle, swans, and other wildlife across their riverside expanse. The Stour Valley Path and St Edmunds Way both pass through, making it a natural pause point for walkers covering the area.
