Discover the hidden gems along the enchanting River Alde in Suffolk, England. From the picturesque St Botolphs Church in Iken, nestled on the riverbank with a magnificent Thames Sailing Barge named Dinah as its companion, to the charming small harbour at Snape Maltings, this idyllic waterway offers endless beauty. As autumn paints a vibrant tapestry on the Alde, immerse yourself in nature's masterpiece. Witness a Cheviot type sheep grazing peacefully along Sudbourne Marshes' sea wall, with the tranquil River Alde and scenic Aldeburgh as their backdrop. The pumping station dutifully moves water from drainage dykes to ensure harmony between land and river. At low tide, ancient groynes emerge like whispers of history on the River Alde's banks. Gaze north towards Aldburgh and be transported back in time by these remnants of days gone by. Meanwhile, Orfordness Lighthouse stands tall as a testament to maritime heritage since 1792 until its decommissioning in 2013. Take a moment to soak up breathtaking views over salt marshes that stretch towards Orford Ness. Here lies an intriguing radio station alongside towering masts - an intriguing juxtaposition against nature's serenity. Finally, cast your eyes southward towards Orford Quay where tidal salt marsh meets quaint village charm. Let your imagination wander as you envision boats gently bobbing on this historic riverfront. The River Alde invites you to embark on an unforgettable journey through time and natural wonders. Explore its treasures and let it captivate your heart.
