We're catching up on Pubs, Ponds and Power this morning 📺, focused on #Lavenham - one of the @wooltowns of #Suffolk - amazing insight into the history of this village, only 15 minutes from Sudbury!
Lovely short walk this morning. 17 of us enjoyed the crisp, bright weather & enjoyed seeing the emerging snowdrops & crocuses. Clare Country Park never fails to delight! Next short walk: 12 Feb. @OneLifeSuffolk@Visit_Clare@ClarePharmacy @DiscoverSuffolk @Most_Active @wooltowns
Clare’s independent shops make it a great place for a spot of shopping, away from the hustle and bustle of larger towns and cities. From antiques to art, sweets to gifts, there’s plenty of choice in Clare
Tea, anyone? Lavenham has a host of welcoming cafes serving home made food and drink. Why not treat yourself to a hearty breakfast or an afternoon tea? Or both?
Come for a walk in and around Clare, Suffolk’s smallest town! You’ll receive the warmest of welcomes. @Visit_Clare @wooltowns @WalkersrWelcome https://t.co/PWrM4KIO8M
Our wool towns are steeped in history and Long Melford is no different. Holy Trinity Church which sits next to the village green is one of the finest examples of a wool church anywhere. Long Melford is also home to @KentwellHall and @MelfordHallNT
