Old School Court is a social development situated close to local amenities and shops with a market day held in town every Thursday and Saturday and lots of social activities such as coffee mornings, quiz nights and many more that residents may opt to participate in.

Stowmarket is affectionately named as ‘The Granary of England’ and is situated midway between the county town of Ipswich and the cathedral city of Bury St Edmunds. It is surrounded by agricultural land and typical Constable Country villages, such as Lavenham that is considered to be one of the loveliest old wool towns in England. In Stowmarket there is a particularly striking feature, a perpendicular church along with many other old buildings of interest.
