Huts are typically available to hire for a day or week and are used as a day base for families on the beach.

A excellent example of a traditional seaside pier, with all the trimmings. For.in just to find the old fashioned penny machines

Remains of a small ruined castle, mainly an impressive gatehouse and some adjoining curtain wall. In private ownership so not accessible.

typical English pier

This is the Barnby Chapel which in 2023 had a major refurbishment from derelict building to cafe and gallery space by the new owners. A real gem of a place and if like me your interests are coffee and art you won't be disappointed when stopping here. Great coffee, cakes and savoury snacks with some light lunch options too, all fairly priced. There's plenty of seating inside and out, cycle racks and a water station for those of you bringing along a four legged friend. 5 Stars on the "Reuse of building O'Meter!"

This was once the old Southwold Victorian Cottage Hospital which has been recently repurposed. It is now the home to Southwold Library, the Geography Fieldwork Academy and two community businesses – Old Hospital Nursery and The Canteen, a farm to fork café. The Old Hospital has been redesigned into a beautiful and environmentally sustainable space to meet the needs of the local community. The Canteen is a nice open bright space with seating in and outside. There is a breakfast and lunch menu with plenty to choose from including excellent coffee and a plethora of sweet treats to choose from for those with a sweet tooth. opening times are 9am till 4pm Tuesday through till Saturday. An excellent stop away from the main high street with those all important bike racks. Check the website out for more information including the story of the Hospital and the clubs and groups that run alongside the Canteen https://www.oldhospitalhub.co.uk/canteen

Mettingham Castle is a fortified manor house that was created in the 14th Century. Given to monks to create a college, after the dissolution of the monasteries it was sold into private hands. From here, you can see the Gatehouse only, but it's in very good condition thanks to English Heritage. You can't get close to the building, but it's an impressive site nonetheless.
