Easton Bavents is a hamlet and former civil parish, now in the parish of Reydon, in the East Suffolk district of the county of Suffolk, England. Once an important village with a market, it has been much eroded by the North Sea. A map of Suffolk dating from about 1610 shows it to have been the most easterly ecclesiastical parish in England.[1] It is now confined to a stretch of the Suffolk coast to the east of Reydon. In 1961 the parish had a population of 23.[2]
