CLICK FOR 2021 CENSUS DATAIntroduction
Claydon is a village just north of Ipswich in Suffolk, England, formed directly as a result of John Jones. He built the village with the support of Henry Bacon. The meaning of the name is "clay-on-the-hill". The village gives its name to the hundred of Bosmere-and-Claydon, one of the 21 districts into which Suffolk was divided for administrative purposes between Saxon and Victorian times. The countryside around Claydon is set among low-lying hills and lies next to the River Gipping. It is close to the intersection of the A14 and the B1113. Between the A14 and the B1113 (former A45) is the Ipswich to Ely Line.
