Felixstowe, Suffolk
Custom Search
Felixstowe is a port and seaside resort on the North Sea coast of Suffolk.
In the 1970s my mother and father used to live on Kemball Street in
Ipswich, and we would often take the train from Derby Road Station to
Felixstowe for some fresh air and fish and chips. Since then I've been a
fairly regular visitor - the town has a quaint, almost old-fashioned
atmosphere and does not seem to have deteriorated as much as some
English seaside resorts - and there's always Peter's Ice-cream !
