Southwold

But one of Southwolds greatest assets, not controlled by the Mayor, 4 Aldermen and 12 Councillors, is its bracing pure air, plentitude of sunshine, and its magnificent ocean tides and 100 mile outlook towards Holland.

(A visitor to Southwold in 1931)












In England it is the small country towns like Southwold, which contribute so greatly to the English scene that charms alike foreigner and the native sightseer.

(A Barrett Jenkins)
