Aldeburgh Moot Hall Suffolk 08.06.09
The Aldeburgh Moot Hall is a Grade I listed timber-framed building which has been used for council meetings for over 400 years. The Town Clerk's office is still there and it also houses the local museum. It was built in about 1520 and altered in 1654. The brick and stone infilling of the ground floor is later. The hall was restored and the external staircase and gable ends were rebuilt in 1854-5, under the direction of R. M. Phipson, the chief architect of the Diocese of Norwich, in which Aldeburgh then stood.
ENGLAND, EXPLORING a NAPOLEONIC era defensive FORT (MARTELLO TOWER) ???? in ALDEBURGH
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go visit one of the remaining Martello Towers in England, this one is at the beautiful village of Aldeburgh. Between 1804 and 1812 the British authorities built a chain of towers based on the original Mortella tower to defend the south and east coast of England, Ireland, Jersey and Guernsey to guard against possible invasion from France, then under the rule of the Emperor Napoleon. A total of 103 Martello towers were built in England, set at regular intervals along the coast from Seaford, Sussex, to Aldeburgh, Suffolk. The northern-most tower at Aldeburgh is of quatrefoil design, i.e. four in one.
England, birthplace of Shakespeare and The Beatles, is a country in the British Isles bordering Scotland and Wales. The capital, London, on the River Thames, is home of Parliament, Big Ben and the 11th-century Tower of London. It's also a multicultural, modern hub for the arts and business. Other large cities are Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool, Bristol and the university centres of Oxford and Cambridge.

BEACH WILD CAMP | SUFFOLK COAST | FRISTON TO ALDEBURGH
I met up with a subscriber named Dan who is actually a Suffolk lad born and bred for this 12 mile 2 day walk with a wild camp on the shingle beach at Aldeburgh at the halfway point.
The weather was a little overcast and we had a bit of a breeze overnight and some fine rain in the morning but that soon blew over and the nice weather returned. We also stopped in Aldeburgh for a pint and some fish and chips before our wild camp (it just has to be done!) at the beach.
We saw some famous local landmarks such as the post mill and House in the clouds at Thorpeness, along with the Meare, before passing Benjamin Britten's Red House the following morning on the edge of Aldeburgh.
We followed a section of the old dismantled railway en route to the coast and found a derelict building related to the railway line. We even found a small wooden cabin in the woods on the return leg of the walk that contained several vintage items.
The entire walk was fantastic, full of variety and the camp was very relaxed and fun. Dan was a great companion for the trip and we got along like a house on fire! Many more trips planned together. Thanks! DO WELL!

Aldeburgh Train, 1960's - Film 18809
A film relating to the last day of railway service through Aldeburgh, Suffolk, and its neighbouring communities. The film surveys each station along the line, before following the diesel railcar on its final journey. One principal feature of the film is the sense of decay of railway fittings and fixtures, conveying a sense of under-use, though large crowds turn out to greet the final journey.
A distant view of a railway station. The platform name-board says that it is Aldeburgh, and the camera pans left to show the signal-box at the platform's end, a diesel railcar approaches on the track alongside. Two smart-looking railway employees, with shirt, jacket and hat, are greeted by a third man. He presents the men with a cup, and they turn to enter the station.
LAST TRAIN FROM ALDEBURGH, September 10th. 1966. Saxmundham - Leiston - Thorpeness - Aldeburgh. (8 miles) Opened 12th. April 1860. Another view of the station name-plate. A panning view of the site, showing a high platform wall, and overgrown weeds in the foreground; the station is empty. A side-on view of the deserted platform. A nameboard on a worn wall hangs below a decrepit-looking lamp, panning down to show the station entrance; a railwayman stands by the door, and a 1950's car is parked outside. Another view of the lamp, with a rusty chain hanging from it, pans down to a sign stating The Railway Executive, WARNING is Hereby given to persons not to trespass upon the railway PENALTY not exceeding 40/-. Three buckets are hooked upon the wall, upon which their shadow is cast by the sun. A number of wooden trolleys propped forlornly on a wooden fence, against a rural backdrop of trees and greenery. A broken wooden bench is seen. An iron knocker in the shape of a fist and a ram's head is shown. A lamp-post without a lamp rusts. A second post does likewise.

Maureen Manson 'Aldeburgh High Street Bombed'
Holding Back the Tide is a Heritage Lottery funded project coordinated by CoastNet.
The initiative is collecting stories, pictures and artefacts from East Anglian communities to tell the story of coastal change that has occurred in the region over the last 50 years or more. The project will culminate in a touring exhibition of coastal living history for regional and local museums as well as on display at other venues as requested by participants.
Central to the project is a vision for increased understanding and appreciation of the changes to the cultural and natural heritage of this part of the British coast and CoastNet wants it to be a vehicle for community cultural development, education and sustainable living.
