The Sign
You could say that Worlingworth has two village signs, one being a metal bench with a similar theme on its back to the main village sign.

The main sign shows a view across the village  with representations of the four seasons in the foreground. There are many buildings of the village in the background including the church of St Mary, the Swann Inn public house and Worlingworth Hall. The race horses shown represent the link with the hall, where part of the grounds now have gallops.

The Name and Population
The population was 802 at the 2011 census. It was called Wilrincgawertha in 1035 and Wyrlingwortha in 1086. The name means "The enclosure or enclosed farmstead of the family or followers of a man called Wilhere", taken from Old English.

Other Points of Interest
Between 1908 and 1952 the village was served by Worlingworth railway station on the Mid-Suffolk Light Railway.

The Swan Inn was originally built shortly before 1550, by Swan Lane, which closed down in 2015 and then re-opened in 2022. Unsure of its present status.

A workhouse was founded in 1730, after the village guild hall was converted. It was able to accommodate 35 people up until it was closed in 1836, shortly after outbreaks of typhus in 1820.
