Historically it was in the Blything Hundred and in the Deanery of Dunwich, (Dunwich North for the period 1868 to 1914, when that deanery was administratively divided in three). [6]
There are some medieval remains of Henham village along with a moat and church located in Tuttles Wood. [7]
Under the Poor Law Amendment Act 1866 Henham became a civil parish in 1866. [8] At the same time the hamlet of Wangford also became a distinct civil parish, but without ecclesiastical status.
On 1 April 1987 the parish was abolished and merged with Wangford to form "Wangford with Henham". [9]
