Mutford is a small village and civil parish located south-west of Lowestoft in the English county of Suffolk. The village is located between Lowestoft and Beccles in a rural area south of the A146 at Barnby. Nearby villages include Gisleham and Henstead. The village gave its name to the Half Hundred of Mutford which is named in the Domesday Book.
The village consists of a crossroads, and a few residential streets. The post office closed in 2013. The Village hall has a large area of land situated at the back with football matches played regularly. The mediaeval church of St Andrew is one of 38 existing round-tower churches in Suffolk and is a Grade I Listed Building. [2]
Sir Stanley Rous, former president of FIFA, was born in Mutford in 1895.[3] Also born in the village was Bill Crooks, manager of Eastwoodhill Arboretum, Ngatapa, Gisborne, New Zealand from 1967-1974.
