On the road from Hoxne to Cross Street lies Goldbrook Bridge, where Edmund is said to have hidden from the Danes. According to legend, a newly-wed couple spotted his spurs glistening in the moon (or sun) and, as the Danes dragged him away, he cried a curse on all bridal couples who should ever cross the bridge. Apparently until well into the 19th century, many local wedding parties would go the long way round rather than chance the curse.

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/
