Great Cornard is a large village and civil parish that is part of the town of Sudbury, in the Babergh district, in the county of Suffolk, England. The area now called Great Cornard has been occupied since pre-history, with evidence of Palaeolithic, Bronze Age and Roman settlements in the parish. The village is accounted for in the Domesday Book of 1086 as the manor of Cornard. A small undated ringwork, located to the south of Abbas Hall, may have been an manorial centre pre-Norman conquest. Alternatively, it may have been a post-conquest manor or ringwork castle.
