Great Waldingfield is a village and civil parish in the Babergh district of Suffolk, England about two miles (3 km) north-east of Sudbury and two miles (3 km) south-west of its sister village, Little Waldingfield. The village is split into two separate parts; the older and smaller part around the St. Lawrence Church, and the newer and larger section along the B1115 road between Sudbury and Hadleigh. Most of the houses in the newer section were built after World War II, including much council housing. The population is estimated to be 1,460.^[1]

The village hall is the normal location of the halfway feeding station on the Dunwich Dynamo overnight bicycle ride, whilst an episode of Lovejoy (Fruit of the Dessert) was filmed in the village
