Aldeburgh Attractions

The small town of Aldeburgh (pop. 2,870) on Aldeburgh Bay was a considerable port from the 15th to the 17th century. From this period date the Moot Hall (1520-40) and a number of picturesque old houses. Aldeburgh is now a popular seaside resort, internationally known for its Music Festival held in June and featuring the works of Benjamin Britton, a former resident. The town is also favored by anglers and visitors to the yacht club.
