Boat rental for a short trip on "The Meare"

Snape Malting is a renowned arts and cultural complex set within a former maltings building by the River Alde. It offers a variety of galleries, shops, and performance spaces, including the famous Snape Maltings Concert Hall. It's definitely worth stopping here for a coffee if you have time.

Two fab-looking old buildings on the seafront of Aldeburgh, I only walked by and did not stop. Love seeing these types of structure, not one part of them look straight, a DIY'ers nightmare.

Look out for the giant scallop on the shore. the metal sculpture caused a future when it was erected, but it's undeniably striking.

Limited parking so try the harbour one down the road

From Wikipedia: 'The Church of St Bartholomew is the parish church of the town of Orford, England. A medieval church, dating from the fourteenth century, with reconstructions in the nineteenth and twentieth century, it is a Grade I listed building. In addition to its listing, the church is notable as the location for the first performances of four of the works of the composer Benjamin Britten: Noye's Fludde, Curlew River, The Burning Fiery Furnace and The Prodigal Son. The church comprises a ruined 12th century chancel, begun in about 1166 and abandoned in the 18th century, the Decorated nave and aisles, restored in the late 19th century, and the tower, restored in the late 20th century after the collapse of its upper storey in 1830. The chancel to the original church was built at about the same time as Orford Castle, and demonstrates a similar "grandeur". By the eighteenth century, the chancel was completely ruined and reconstruction concentrated on the nave and the tower. In the early 1880s George Edmund Street prepared a plan for a comprehensive restoration of the whole complex but this was not undertaken. Instead, rebuilding work spanned almost a hundred years, with J T Micklethwaite undertaking the reconstruction of the nave and aisles between 1894 and 1900, H M Cautley repairing the chancel in 1930, and Bruce George restoring the tower in 1971–72.

Installed in 2003, the Scallop is a beautiful piece of art that reflects the coastal light wonderfully. It was sculpted by local artist Maggi Hambling in memory of the composer Benjamin Britten. He took daily walks along the sea during the many years he lived in Aldeburgh. The Scallop has faced a fair amount of local opposition due to its prominent position on the otherwise undisturbed bay.

Thorpness is set around The Meare, an artificial lake lined with colourful wooden boats.
