Mildenhall is a small market town and civil parish in Suffolk, England. It is run by Forest Heath District Council and has a population of 9,906 people. The town is just off of the A11 and is located some 18 km (11 mi) north-west of the town of Bury St. Edmunds, 30 km (19 mi) north-east of the city of Cambridge, and 60 km (37 mi) north-west of Suffolk's county town of Ipswich.
Mildenhall has five schools: two primary schools, two middle schools and one upper school. The primary schools are St. Mary's Primary School and Great Heath School; the middle schools are College Heath Middle School and Riverside Middle school. The high school is Mildenhall College of Technology, which also has a sixth form for students who have left the standard curriculum and who want a different option to college or university. The large Royal Air Force base, RAF Mildenhall, is located immediately north of the town. The base is used by the United States Air Force, as the headquarters of its 100th Air Refueling Wing and 352nd Special Operations Group.
The town centres on the market place with its 16th century hexagonal market cross and town pump; the town's market is held here on every Friday and originated as a weekly chartered market/ dance club in medieval times (since the 15th century it is believed). The Mildenhall Museum in the centre of the town contains displays of times past, the local wildlife, the history of the RAF base from its opening in 1934, and information on the Mildenhall Treasure. The town has an array of family-owned stores from a traditional fish and chip shop, to a pet shop . A Sainsburys supermarket has replaced the Budgens supermarket.
