ショットシャム周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

長年にわたり、私はほとんどすべてのイギリスの教会を訪れました。この教会は別格で、しかも無料です（大人一人あたり£5の寄付を提案しています）。 その圧倒的な大きさと多くの礼拝堂に感動しました。ほとんど迷子になりそうです。 祈りのための静かな場所もあります。 ガイドツアーを予約しなかったことを後悔しました。役に立ったはずです。それでも素晴らしいです。ちなみに、素敵なギフトショップとカフェもあります。

One of several art installations around the cathedral.

Known by the Romans as "the market of the Iceni" (Venta Icenorum) this was one of the strongholds of the Iceni Tribe. It was the centre of the revolt led by Queen Boudicca against the Roman invasion in AD 60/61. Today the site is one of three major British/Roman towns which has not been built on. Roman embankments and fortifications can be seen today.

Very impressive Normal cathedral, constructed from imported Normandy limestone.

The more scenic alternative to the modern road bridge on the adjacent B1062. A popular swim and picnic spot in the summer.

The Grade I-listed Norman Bungay Castle became the seat of the Bigod family, allies of King William during the conquest of 1066. The Bigods were charismatic leaders among the barons and oversaw the construction of the keep in the latter half of the 12th century. Today, Bungay Castle is an impressive ruin, with its two huge gate towers still intact. However, throughout 2023, the castle was closed for restorations.

The castle is closed for all of 2023 for refurbishment and repairs https://bungay-suffolk.co.uk/to-do/castle/

Bungay Castle is a Grade I listed building. The site was originally a Norman castle built in about 1100 to take advantage of the natural protection provided by a curve in the River Waveney. The remains today of the castle include its keep, gatehouse, curtain wall and the remnants of the castle’s inner bailey wall. Open daily between 10am and 4pm, the castle can be visited via the visitor centre on the road known as Castle Orchard.
