Communities
The district contained three market towns and twenty civil parishes.
Forest Heath District Council provided district-level functions. County-level functions were provided by Suffolk County Council. The whole district was also divided into civil parishes, which provided a third tier of local government. The district council was based at offices on College Heath Road in Mildenhall.[4] The building was purpose-built for the council and opened in 1980.[5] After the council's abolition in 2019, the building was deemed surplus to requirements, and it was subsequently demolished.[6]
