Icklingham is a village in the Forest Heath district of the English county of Suffolk. It is abut 7 miles (11 km) north-west of Bury St Edmunds, 4 miles (6.4 km) south-east of Mildenhall and 9 miles (14 km) south-west of Thetford in Norfolk. The village is on the A1101 road between Bury St Edmunds and Mildenhall in the north-west of the county. The area around the village is known as Breckland.
The village straddles the River Lark, a tributary to the Great Ouse. It was once navigable up to Bury St Edmunds, with locks installed; these are now redundant, the remains of at least one lock being visible near Icklingham. The river is the reason for the siting of Icklingham's greatest industry, the local flour mill. The village church, All Saints Church, Icklingham, is Norman in origin and a Grade I listed building.
