Southwold

Southwold, otherwise known as London on Sea.  No empty shops here, but a tendency towards "Vintage".  It was a cold, blustery day and we were glad to find a tea-shop for lunch.

The beach huts looked anything but inviting on such a day.

The absolutely fabulous church at first appeared to be closed,but in fact was just having masonry repairs to its porch.

Inside, it is very light and airy, much larger than you would expect for this small community.

A decorated pulpit.

And a really lovely painted screen, defaced at the time of the Reformation.

 

The panels at the ends are in a different mounting.  the suggestion is that they may have been relocated here from one of the drowned churches of this coast.
