The present building is a cathedral. The abbey that preceded it was shut down after the reformation and only its ruins remain.

A nice village green with a bench. The Bardwell Ix Bells pub is nearby and a little further on you’ll come to the Dun Cow, and further again, The Grumpy Goat sports pavilion, bar & cafe. A great choice for a relatively small village!

Old Church

This beautiful cathedral was originally built as a church in the early 13th century and became a cathedral for the newly established Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich in 1914. It has some beautiful characteristics including a large rose window, detailed stone carvings, fantastic gardens and the notable Abbey Gate.

Lovely setting, in a converted farm building by a small lake next to a caravan/motorhome campsite. 50m off the main road down a smooth and level gravel driveway. Indoor seating or outdoor picnic tables by the lake. Open 9.30am-4pm, Tue-Sat.

Pleasant, shady spot. Only a few meters from the road but the ground is grass/mud so not the easiest to access in road cleats unless in dry summer conditions.

The approach from the A1066 to the south offers a short but fast descent (max 7%) to the River Thet, a rarity in this part of the world. Watch out for the off-camber 90 degree left turn at the bottom, with a large pot hole in the middle, which can easily catch you out.
