Places to see in ( Stowmarket - UK )
Stowmarket is a small market town situated in Suffolk, England, on the busy A14 trunk road between Bury St Edmunds to the west and Ipswich to the southeast. The town of Stowmarket is on the main railway line between London and Norwich, and lies on the River Gipping, which is joined by its tributary, the River Rat, to the south of the town.
The town of Stowmarket takes its name from the Old English word stōw meaning principal place, and was granted a market charter in 1347 by Edward III. A bi-weekly market is still held there today on Thursday and Saturday. The church of St Peter and St Mary is in the Decorated style and dates to the 14th century. The 16th-century former vicarage, now the town council offices and register office, has associations with John Milton; Milton’s Tree in its grounds is believed to be an offshoot of one of the many trees he planted there.
Haughley Park is an historical house of significance listed in the English Heritage Register. It is a large red brick country house built in about 1620 for the Sulyard family who were very prominent landowners in this area. Opened in 1967, the Museum of East Anglian Life occupies a 70-acre (28 ha) site close to the town centre. The Karnser is a raised pavement in Station Road West, next to the church. The name is the East Anglian dialect word caunsey, meaning a causey (causeway).
In the 18th century the Gipping was made navigable between Stowmarket and Ipswich by a series of locks. The newly created canal was known as the Ipswich and Stowmarket Navigation. Stowmarket railway station is on the Great Eastern Main Line from London Liverpool Street to Norwich. It is also the junction of the line to Bury St Edmunds. It is served by Abellio Greater Anglia. Suffolk County Council has built a road from the Central Roundabout, a short distance to the east of Stowmarket, to Gipping Way in central Stowmarket at a cost of £21 million.
Stowmarket has held an annual carnival for well over 50 years in the recreation park featuring a fun fair, fireworks, a procession through the town and local entertainment. Stowmarket also plays host to the music festival Stow-Fest, a live music open-air event that takes place annually at Chilton Fields in the North of Stowmarket. Stowmarket has a maritime climate type as is typical for the bulk of the British Isles. Wattisham is the nearest official weather station, about 4 miles south south west of Stowmarket Town centre.

Waldringfield Suffolk
Join me on a day out in Suffolk, visiting the beautiful village of Waldringfield. Situated on the River Deben, it really does not get much better than this, peace, tranquillity, quiet, and just a general calm about the place, which you can only feel by visiting.
Only one and a half hours drive from Hitchin, and North Herts, anytime of the year, if you're looking for a lovely day out, you will not be disappointed.
There is a pub there called the Maybush serving great food, and all the local ales, plus you are also not far from the town of Woodbridge where you can visit the ancient Viking burial site of Sutton Hoo.
Enjoy this short film, and if like what you see, spread the word, and share this film on your own social media or email the link.

CRETINGHAM AND BRANDESTON DAY WALK (4/3/17)
A 5 mile, 2 hour day walk in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, visiting two isolated villages, both with pubs. Highlights include a failed attempt at stealing a golf buggy, a cat, a church with a wonky wall, a cider (but of course) and a lovely river crossing. Not bad for a lazy Saturday afternoon.
