Southwold
Southwold is a small town and civil parish on the English North Sea coast in the East Suffolk area of Suffolk. It lies at the mouth of the River Blyth within the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The town is about 11 miles (18 km) south of Lowestoft, 29 miles (47 kilometres) north-east of Ipswich and 97 miles (156 kilometres) north-east of London, within the parliamentary constituency of Suffolk Coastal. The "All Common Citizens" 2011 Census number offers an overall of 1,098 persons for the town. The 2012 Real estate Report by the Southwold as well as Reydon Society concluded that 49 per cent of the residences in the community are used as 2nd residences and also let to holiday-makers. Although once house to a variety of various sectors, Southwold's economic situation nowadays is primarily based upon solutions, and also especially hotels, vacation accommodation, event catering, as well as tourism. With the bordering areas mainly given over to agriculture, the town is an essential commercial centre for the location, with a number of independent shops, cafés as well as dining establishments; and also a market on Mondays as well as Thursdays. However, there has been a significant trend recently for retailing chains, including food and also drinks, clothing and stationery shops, to take over formerly independent retail facilities. Adnams Brewery is located in Southwold, and is the community's biggest solitary company. Although the angling fleet and also the market usually is much diminished, Southwold Harbour continues to be one of the main angling ports on the Suffolk coastline. In 2012, additional facilities for the fleet were constructed there, as part of the repair work and also reinstatement of the Harbour's North Wall.
