}}Moulton is a village in the district of Forest Heath, Suffolk, England. It pre-dates the 1086 Domesday book and, in 2005, had a population of 1090.[1]

The village is older than the now larger town of Newmarket and includes a 15th-century packhorse bridge spanning the River Kennett. The bridge is a grade II* listed structure [3]

Moulton also has a fine church, St. Peter's, with an early 14th-century tower topped by a gilded weather vane in the shape of a large pike by blacksmith Charles Poulter.[4] Restored in 1851, it is a grade I listed building.[5]

John Gower connection

In August 1382 John Gower purchased the manors of Feltwell in Norfolk and Multon in Suffolk. They were then granted to Thomas Blakelake, parson of St. Nicholas, Feltwell, and others, at a rent of forty pounds annually for his life.[6]{{rp|xvi}}
