Thetford Warren Lodge is a fifteenth-century hunting lodge situated in Thetford Warren, Suffolk. The structure survives as a substantial brick-built tower, representing an important example of late medieval leisure architecture associated with the management of rabbit warrens, which were valuable commercial enterprises during this period. The lodge would have served as a residence for the warren keeper and a base for the administration of the warren's operations. Its survival demonstrates the significance of warrens to the medieval and early modern Norfolk and Suffolk economy, when rabbit meat and fur were sought-after commodities.
