Impressive, vast estate. From the entrance, you'll notice that this is something special—an amazing building and surrounding gardens, with gift shop and cafes which close at 4 pm. Around the estate, you'll have kilometre after kilometre of woods with every turn displaying a different scenery. You'll have ups and downs of roads very good for hiking and a sweaty cardio. Before you enter, though, please be aware that non-members will pay a reduced entrance fee of 10 quid per person after 3.30 pm. I have no idea what the full rate is.

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.

The Round House features a unique facade and a captivating history. It began as a shooting lodge before undergoing a transformation into a gamekeeper's cottage. Surrounded by the melody of bird calls and the beauty of nature, this cottage creates a truly picturesque scene. Today, it serves as a holiday cottage available for online booking.

Here, you'll have the opportunity to admire this incredible Italianate Georgian palace, an astonishing building that is further enhanced by its idyllic location and gardens. The magnificent Rotunda was commissioned by the fourth Earl of Bristol to house all the treasures he collected during his travels across Europe in the 18th century.

Would have been amazing in its day but now it’s just a bit of ruined masonry on a busy road into Bury, opposite a Ford garage and next to a Tesco warehouse. Sic transit gloria.

Occupies the site of the old abbey with a very scenic set-paved road taking you past the front.

Lovely spit for a coffee stop or lunch. If you're lucky you can pop into the cathedral and hear the choir practicing!

Ickworth House is a country house at Ickworth, near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, England. It is a neoclassical building set in parkland. The house was the residence of the Marquess of Bristol before being sold to the National Trust in 1998. The house, built between 1795 and 1829, was formerly the chief dwelling of an estate owned by the Hervey family, later Marquesses of Bristol, since 1467. The building was the creation of Frederick Hervey, 4th Earl of Bristol and Bishop of Derry (known as the Earl-Bishop), who commissioned the Italian architect Antonio Asprucci to design him a classical villa in the Suffolk countryside. Originally it had been planned as an art gallery but the Earl's collection was seized by Napoleon. The Earl died in 1803, leaving the completion of house to his successor. In 1956, the house, park, and a large endowment were given to the National Trust in lieu of death duties. As part of the handover agreement, a 99-year lease on the 60-room East Wing was given to the Marquess of Bristol. However, in 1998 the 7th Marquess of Bristol sold the remaining lease on the East Wing to the National Trust. He was succeeded by his half-brother Frederick William Augustus Hervey, 8th Marquess of Bristol (born 19 October 1979). The National Trust refused to sell the remaining lease term back to the 8th Marquess, thereby contravening the Letter of Wishes which states that the head of the family should always be offered whatever accommodation he chooses at Ickworth. The family's once private East Wing is now run as The Ickworth Hotel on a lease from the National Trust. Apartments, also leased from the Trust, are located in the Dower House in the grounds. The West Wing at Ickworth House went uncompleted until 2006, when a joint partnership between the National Trust and Sodexo Prestige led to its renovation and opening as a centre for conferences and events. The first wedding in the property's history took place in 2006. As one of England's more unusual houses, Ickworth has been unflatteringly described as resembling "a huge bulk, newly arrived from another planet" and as "an overgrown folly". It is now being architecturally reassessed and recognised as the only building in England comparable with the monumental works of Boullée and Ledoux. The design concept was based on the designs of Italian architect Antonio Asprucci, most noted for his work at the Villa Borghese, which the Bishop-Earl had seen. Asprucci's plans were adapted and the building work overseen by English architects Francis Sandys and his brother Joseph Sandys. The façades are of brick covered in stucco; beneath a roof of slate and lead. The central rotunda is 105 ft. high with a domed and balustraded roof. the building is entered through the central entrance ionic pedimented portico. The rotunda is decorated with pilasters, which on the lower floor are Ionic and Corinthian above. The ground and first floor and the third floor and the balustraded parapet are divided friezes bas-relief. The rotunda is flanked by segmental single story narrow wings (appearing as a blind arcade) linking, in the palladian fashion, to two terminating pavilions; these segmental wings are broken at their centre by projecting bays which house the Smoking Room and the Pompeian Room, both later 19th century additions. Unlike the design of a true Palladian building, the terminating pavilions, rather than minor balancing appendages, are in fact large wings, complementary in weight to the rotunda which becomes their corps de logis. The East Wing, a small mansion in itself, was designed to be the everyday living quarters of the family (which it remained until 1998), thus permitting the more formal rooms of the rotunda to be reserved for entertaining and display. The west wing, intended as an orangery, sculpture gallery and service rooms remained an unfinished shell until the beginning of the 21st century. For much of the time it was used as agricultural storage and latterly for playing squash on a court installed by the 4th Marquess.

Nestling in an enchanting woodland glade close to Fairy Lake, is this fable-like rotunda cottage. A mini, more folky version of the nearby Ickworth rotunda, it was originally used as a shooting lodge and then a gamekeeper's cottage. The National Trust now rent this building out. Inside, it’s deceptively spacious and can accommodate up to six people and two dogs. Circular shaped rooms give it a real cosy feel, especially when the log-burner crackles in the living room. Although you’ll be tucked away in a sheltered setting, the main house, Italianate gardens and sweeping parklands are all within a stone’s throw. Explore the extensive hiking, running and cycling trails that wrap around the estate and head to Porters Lodge dog friendly outdoor café for lunch. Surrounded by countryside with 1,000 years of history to explore, Bury St Edmunds offers visitors award-winning restaurants, fantastic shopping, annual festivals, and a great day out for families. From the magnificent St Edmundsbury Cathedral, and historic ruins of the 11th century Abbey of St Edmund, to the artisan, independent shops surrounding the medieval grid of the town centre.

Ickworth House has been in the care of The National Trust since 1998. It was previously the home of the Marquis of Bristol. The Rotunda , at the centre of the house, is an art and silver gallery. The house is open to the public. See the website for further details https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/visit/suffolk/ickworth

Can't do better than quote the welcome from the Fox Inn's website, "Where the unique and wonderful gather to enjoy exquisite food and drink, spectacular music and a grand old time. It’s a place where laughter is not far away, where musicians and performers can play their craft and where new friends can become old friends over a glass of something wonderful." Quite a billing to live up too? You will find that the Fox Inn does so admirably. Add to this at 123m it is the highest point in Suffolk that you can buy a pint, with the county top itself (Great Wood Hill) only a few metres higher.

St Edmundsbury Cathedral originated in the 11th century and was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries as a parish church, becoming a cathedral in 1914.

The hospital of Saint Saviour is a little oasis of history on the busy Thornham Road / A1101 out of Bury St. Edmunds. The hospital of St. Saviour, without the north gate, was begun by Abbot Samson about the year 1184, but it was not finished nor fully endowed until the time of King John. It was originally founded for a warden, twelve chaplain priests, six clerks, twelve poor men, and twelve poor women.

The church with almost 1000 years of history was part of the abbey and has been extended and rebuilt several times in its history.

St Edmundsbury Cathedral (formally entitled the Cathedral Church of St James and St Edmund) is the cathedral for the Church of England's Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich. It is the seat of the Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich and is in Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk. Originating in the 11th century, it was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries as a parish church and became a cathedral in 1914; it has been considerably enlarged in recent decades. A church has stood on the site of the cathedral since at least 1065, when St Denis's Church was built within the precincts of Bury St Edmunds Abbey. In the early 12th century the Abbot, Anselm, had wanted to make a pilgrimage along the Way of St James to Santiago de Compostela. He was unsuccessful and instead rebuilt St Denis's and dedicated the new church to Saint James, which served as the parish church for the north side of Bury St Edmunds. Anselm was also responsible for building the abbey gate tower, known today as the Norman Tower, alongside St James's, which also served as the church's belfry and it continues in this function to the present day. The church is located about 200 yards from St Mary's Church, which is of a similar size. This church was largely rebuilt, starting in 1503, in the Perpendicular style by John Wastell, a master mason who also worked on King's College, Cambridge. Further alterations to the building were undertaken in the 18th and 19th centuries, notably a new chancel and a hammerbeam roof by George Gilbert Scott. When the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich was created in 1914, St James's Church was made the cathedral. In 1959 Benjamin Britten wrote the Fanfare for St Edmundsbury for a "Pageant of Magna Carta" held in the cathedral grounds. From 1959 onwards there was renewed building work designed to transform the former parish church into a cathedral building. Between 1959 and 1970, the Victorian chancel was demolished and replaced with a new quire, a cloister was added on the west side; also transepts, a Lady chapel and a side chapel dedicated to St Edmund were built. The cathedral architect from 1943 to 1988 was Stephen Dykes Bower and he left £2 million for the completion of the cathedral. In the cathedral grounds a new choir school and visitor's centre, which were opened in 1990, were built by Dykes Bower's successor, Alan Rome. Work started on a Gothic revival style tower in 2000; funded by the Millennium Commission, the Stephen Dykes Bower Trust and others, the Millennium Tower was designed by Hugh Mathew, an associate of Dykes Bower. The 150 foot (46 metre) structure was built from 600,000 bricks and faced with Barnack and Clipsham stone. Its completion was officially celebrated on 22 July 2005. Further additions are the Chapel of the Transfiguration and the East Cloister, both completed in 2009, and the Crypt Treasury in 2012.

The hospital of St. Saviour, without the north gate, was begun by Abbot Samson about the year 1184, but it was not finished nor fully endowed until the time of King John. It was originally founded for a warden, twelve chaplain priests, six clerks, twelve poor men, and twelve poor women.  Abbot Samson and the convent granted to the hospital the place upon which the buildings stood; £13 in silver of their village of Icklingham; two portions of their church of Melford; portions of certain tithes; eight acres of corn in Cockfield; and their houses at 'Telefort,' saving to the monastery an annual service of 2s., and to the canons 12d. This grant was confirmed on 16 July, 1206, by John de Gray, bishop of Norwich.  The annual value of this hospital in 1291 is set down at the round sum of £10.  A charter of Abbot John, 1292, relative to this hospital, lays down that the inmates henceforth must be poor; that 6s. 8d. was to be allowed to clerks and laymen, and 5s. to sisters; and that the warden was to be a man of prudence and discretion. The endowment was at the same time augmented by 10 acres of land and two of meadow near the south gate, and by 22d. rent in the town.  In the time of Edward I, there were only seven chaplains, and it was decided to dismiss the poor sisters and in their place to receive and maintain old and infirm priests.  In 1336 the abbey successfully resisted the crown's custom of imposing pensioners on the hospital funds; securing a grant that after the death of John de Broughton the hospital should not again be called upon to provide corrodies out of its revenues.  In 1390 William the abbot, with the consent of Adam de la Kyndneth, guest-master, granted to Edward Merssh of Ickworth a corrody in this hospital for his life. In the following year Robert Rymer was granted a corrody by the same abbot in St. Saviour's, through the vacancy caused by the death of Edward Merssh. In the year 1392 John Reve, of Pakenham, was admitted an inmate on the following terms: he was to have board and lodging in the hospital for life, and to receive annually a gown, a pair of stockings, and a pair of shoes. It is added in a memorandum that John Reve in consideration of this grant was to pay to the master of the hospital, towards the new fabric of the hospital, the large sum of 26 marks by the hand of Robert Ashfield. The hospital was also used from time to time as a refuge for worn-out priests. Abbot John of Northwold, when founding the charnel house, laid down that its two chaplains, when they became infirm, were to be admitted to St. Saviour's Hospital, save if they were suffering from any contagious disease, when they were to be sent to the hospital of St. Peter or that of St. Nicholas.  Among the town muniments are five rolls of accounts of this hospital for the years 1353-4, 1374-5, 1385-6, 1386-7, and 1438-9. Mention is made in the accounts for 1386-7 (when the receipts were £106 2s. 9½d. and the expenses £234 3s. 6¾d.), among the ornaments of the chapel of St. Thomas in the infirmary church, of 12s. for a silver box placed beneath the feet of an image, and a base (corbel stone) bought of Simon, the abbey mason, at 5s., for the image to stand on at the right corner of the altar. Also three books with the services of the passion and translation of St. Thomas, 13s. 4d. Sixpence was paid to a messenger going to Clare to get a doctor in theology to preach on St. Thomas's Day, and then on to Sudbury for tiles for the pavement of St. Thomas's Chapel. A suffragan bishop received a gift this year, as well as his chaplain and servant; he probably attended to consecrate the chapel or altar of St. Thomas. St. Saviour's Hospital was by far the largest and most important institution of its kind in the town. It suffered much at the hands of the rioters of 1327, both in stock and goods; the loss was valued at £21 9s. 6d., including horses, cows, and pigs, as well as smaller articles, such as six silver spoons worth 7s. 6d., and a maser worth a mark. The accounts of this hospital are not entered separately from those of the abbey in the Valor of 1535. There are eight entries of dues payable to the hospital from certain abbey properties, amounting to £6 2s. 3d. This intermingling of the accounts of the hospital with those of the abbey arose from the fact that in 1528 Pope Clement issued a bull whereby the profits of this hospital were annexed to the abbey and specially assigned for the exercise of hospitality at the abbot's table.  The hospital site and buildings (save the lead) were granted on its suppression by Henry VIII to Sir John Williams and Anthony Stringer in February, 1542-3, but they almost immediately received licence to alienate to Nicholas Bacon and Henry Ashfield.  Wardens of the Hospital of St. Saviour, Bury St. Edmunds Peter de Shenedon, occurs 1318 Nicholas Snytterton, occurs 1374 Walter de Totyngtone, occurs 1385 John Power,  occurs 1390 Adam de Lakyngheth,  1406

The Fox is a lovely and friendly pub. I enjoyed a fine pint of Greene King IPA which wasn’t a difficult choice - I was weaned on this stuff! There were a few locals already inside when I arrived and in the immediate absence of the Landlady, it was they who let me in and welcomed me. Others were coming and going and the atmosphere really was that of a public house in the true sense. With the sun streaming in, and a nice fire in the corner, it would have been easy to have stayed for “the other one” or two.
