The church tower soars up from a cluster of pretty cottages in this hidden corner of Suffolk. It displays some of the best flint decoration in East Anglia on the porch and battlements.

Pink area churches
Wild heathland, the swish of estuary reeds, and the cry of the oystercatcher across the marshes are familiar sights and sounds in this hauntingly beautiful area of Suffolk. Here you’ll find great coastal churches, once landmarks for ships at sea, and the mighty castles of Framlingham and Orford. Get a taste of the Suffolk coast in winter.
Dennington St Mary
This church is best seen from the west end where you can admire the sturdy tower with its embattled stair turret rising over 80 feet and the large niches for saints above the west doorway.

Framlingham St Michael
Don’t even think of visiting Framlingham Castle without going to this church because it’s only here you will be able to complete the story of the Dukes of Norfolk. They include Thomas Howard, one of the most powerful nobles in England during the reign of Henry VIII and uncle to two of his wives – Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard.
