Landguard Fort is at the mouth of the River Orwell outside Felixstowe. It is one of the country’s best preserved coastal defences. Built over 450 years ago with a rich history guarding the mouth of the River Orwell from invaders!

The River Deben is a river in Suffolk. Starting to the west of Debenham and passing through Woodbridge. It turns into a tidal estuary before entering the North Sea at Felixstowe Ferry.

The River Orwell is another Suffolk river which flows through our county of Suffolk.  It broadens into an estuary at Ipswich, where the Ipswich dock has operated since the 7th century, and then flows into the North Sea at Felixstowe

Martellos are small defensive towers that were built across the UK in the 18th Century. Eight of these towers were built on the Felixstowe Peninsula. Four of these towers can still be seen on our coastline!
