Brandon is a small market town located in the county of Suffolk, England. The town sits along the Little Ouse River and has a history dating back to prehistoric times, with evidence of flint mining in the area.

During the medieval period, Brandon developed as a center for the rabbit fur trade and later became known for its flint knapping industry, which supplied gunflints to the British Army.

Today, Brandon maintains its historic character with its traditional market square and Georgian architecture, while serving as a gateway to the Thetford Forest, one of the largest lowland pine forests in England. The town's heritage is reflected in its local history and the surrounding natural landscape, offering visitors insights into both its industrial past and natural environment.
