Casting our minds back to 10th February 2026, the morning starts with a drizzle but maybe it’ll clear and get out sunny. We opt to visit a town, where there are shops to dive into if the clouds release a downpour. We choose Bungay. There’s a medieval castle at Bungay but that’s wrapped in tarpaulin while it undergoes essential repairs. Not to be deterred, we hop those buses and duly arrive. Here π½ please join us
The first thing you notice about this small town of Bungay is it has two medieval churches πΌ the round towered Holy Trinity, just visible here π½ and the more ornate St Mary’s β¬which once had a priory attached
Next you might notice how colourful the houses! π½β¬β¬β¬
π½ !!!
And the river πΌ Here flows the Waveney, one of the three rivers that conjoin to make Breydon Water at Gt Yarmouth
πΌ The placid river π½ The gush as that water rushes through the weir
We cross that little footbridge back into town to find a cafe and warm ourselves, for this day is not warm.
I hope you enjoyed our town walk and that your nose, fingers and toes aren’t as cold as mine. And, oh look, it’s about to rain. More photos on Tuesday












This was a particularly wonderful jaunt thru Suffolk. Every time I hear that name I flash on Henry Cavill’s character in The Tudors! Yum. So anyway, where was I? heheheheh I think I might have to bookmark this post for future Behind Closed Doors posts- as I am sure I can find a story in one of these wonderful structures.
