A day in Southwold, Suffolk






We went to the seaside for the day yesterday for a bit of bracing air. Southwold is an old fashioned and quirky resort on the east coast of England. It hasn't the brash pseudo-Vegasian aspirations of many seaside towns. No gawdy neon signs or 'kiss-me-quick' hats. Brighton Rock could not have been set here. On it's plus side, however, there is a pier with a small arcade containing the most bizarre attractions. They were all from the imagination of Tim Hunkin: http://www.underthepier.com/index.htm

There is also an excellent fish and chip shop in town called Mark's.

Hi Jeremy. This is absolutely my kind of place. Don and I would love to visit this quirky village. And that WALL!! Talk about "When Worlds Collide".
 
Hi Jeremy,
