The River Waveney at Beccles

Highlight • Viewpoint

The River Waveney runs from Redgrave in Suffolk to Breydon Water, Great Yarmouth and acts as the boundary between Norfolk and Suffolk. From Beccles bridge it is tidal so has a very different feel beyond this point.

Back in 1986, a hoard of 51 Saxon coins and a Saxon brooch were found in Barsham Marshes by the river bank. An excavation of timber posts dating to 75BC has also taken place in the area.
