Background
History
It's believed the site of the village has been continuously occupied since Roman times. Stanton dates back to Roman times, sited at the junction of Peddars Way and the Roman road believed to run between Camulodunum (Colchester) and Bildeston. The site of a Roman Villa known as 'Stanton Chare' is at the junction of the two ancient routes. The Manor of Stanton was held for many years by Abbots of Bury St Edmunds, and subsequently by the Capell Lofft family. The present parish was formed from two earlier parishes, Stanton All Saints and Stanton St John. The former St John's Church, on a prominent hill outside the village, was abandoned and services continued at All Saints in the village centre.
