Culpho (pronounced Cul-fo) is a hamlet of about 40 people standing just outside Grundisburgh, Suffolk, about four miles west of Woodbridge. Its nearest villages are Great Bealings and Playford. It is big enough to have its own church, St Botolphs, which is part of a shared benefice with Great Bealings, Little Bealings and Playford.
In 1280 an abbey was erected here[1] on behalf of the monksofLeiston Abbey but this has long been demolished and a farmhouse now stands in its place.
Culpho is one of the Thankful Villages - those very rare places that suffered no fatalities in the Great War of 1914 to 1918.
