The archdeacon is responsible for the disciplinary supervision of the clergy[1] in its five rural deaneries; Clare, Ixworth, Lavenham, Sudbury and Thingoe.[2]

History

Originally in the Diocese of Norwich, the Sudbury archdeaconry was transferred to the Diocese of Ely in 1837. It was then transferred a second time to the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich in 1914. The current archdeacon is David Jenkins.[3]
