Kersey, Medieval village in Suffolk, England
The main street of Kersey features timber-framed houses from the 12th to 15th centuries, with a ford crossing through the center.
During medieval times, Kersey developed into a textile production center, creating a specific woolen cloth that became known as Kersey cloth.
St Mary's Church, dating from the 12th century, stands prominently on Church Hill and remains the central religious structure of the village.
The village maintains a primary school, The Bell Inn pub with a beer garden, and multiple marked walking paths through the surrounding countryside.
A stream called The Splash crosses the main street, requiring vehicles to drive through water when passing through the village center.
