Ashfield cum Thorpe is a civil parish in the Mid Suffolk district of Suffolk, England, between the town of Framlingham to the East and the village of Debenham to the West.
The patron of St Mary's was Baron Henniker of Thornham Magna.
This went on until 1853, when Lord Henniker paid for a new St Mary church in Ashfield.
Thorpe church was rebuilt in 1739 by George Pitt, retaining its late Saxon tower.
The village was briefly featured in an episode of the BBC television mockumentary sitcom People Just Do Nothing.
