Central SuffolkIpswich

Ipswich is one of the fastest growing and major towns in Suffolk, based on the major ports.

Although the centre has been redeveloped, some of the original town has been preserved and many old streets still remain with timber clad houses.

The Great White Hotel was featured in Pickwick Papers by Charles Dickens.

Lots to do and see when you are visiting, and OK for a shopping trip too!
