Along England's east shore, the Suffolk Heritage Coast blends windswept heaths, marshes, shingle beaches, and expansive North Sea views. One of its best-known towns is Southwold, where water and history are inseparable. Almost encircled by the sea, the River Blyth, and surrounding wetlands, the town occupies a slender peninsula shaped by centuries of fishing, trade, and life at the edge of the water.
