Trimley St. Martin is parish and village between Felixstowe and Ipswich in Suffolk, England.
The village, and its neighbour Trimley St. Mary, are famous for their adjacent churches which were built as the result of a historical family feud. St. Martin's church is the northerly church (at grid reference TM 276 370).
There has been some controversy over plans to build a further 1,500 dwellings on the land owned by Trinity College, Cambridge. Some fear that the village identity would be lost, to be replaced by suburban sprawl, whilst others argue that there is a real need for additional housing in the area.
