Exploring Sutton Hoo

Sutton Hoo
Who would have thought mounds could be so interesting!  Sutton Hoo is set in a wonderful landscape and the mounds are just the start of the story..... On arrival at Sutton Hoo it's easy to get swept up in the excellent 'visitor attraction' facilities before actually venturing outside to see the wonderful landscape where the story begins. It was shortly before the Second World War that Ed...

The Operations Room, Debach Airfield Control Tower
It's funny how one of the best days out I have had so far this year is one I stumbled upon by accident! That's exactly what happened at Debach Airfield Museum. On my way to Ipswich I came across an eye-catching sign that made me think.....ooohh I will pop in there on my way back, which is exactly what I did!

Framlingham Castle The castle dates from the late 12th-century and is a great day out for al...
