Southwold
This charming market town, first incorporated in the reign of Henry VII, is thought initially to have been a mile from the sea. A large part of the old town was destroyed by fire in 1659 and the popular seaside resort of today is the result of subsequent imaginative planning. The lighthouse, built in 1890, looks out to Southwold Bay, also known as Sole Bay, which was the scene of the celebrated naval engagement of 1672 between the English and Dutch fleets. The i 5th-century church of St Edmund is one of the finest in the county and has many impressive features. The amusing little clock striker known as Southwold Jack, or Jack o' the Clock, a wooden figure in the uniform of a Yorkist Soldier dates from the late 15th century.
