| 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 ! |
| The Spa Gardens. Sorry this one is a bit scruffy but I think it's a great image - probably dates from around WW1 or just after. |
