About Ipswich

  • Sutton Hoo, a few miles from Ipswich on the banks of the River Deben, is one of the most significant archaeological sites in Britain and the discovery that transformed understanding of the Anglo-Saxon world. In 1939, the landowner Edith Pretty commissioned an excavation of the burial mounds on her estate, and the archaeologist Basil Brown uncovered the ghost of a 27-metre ship buried in the earth, at the centre of which lay an undisturbed royal burial chamber containing the most spectacular collection of Anglo-Saxon treasure ever found — a gold and garnet helmet, a ceremonial shield, a sword with a jewelled pommel, silver plate from Byzantium, and dozens of other objects of extraordinary craftsmanship. The burial is believed to be that of Raedwald, King of East Anglia, who died around 625 AD.
  • Constable Country — the stretch of the Stour Valley around Flatford Mill, a few miles south of Ipswich — is one of the most painted landscapes in the world, made famous by John Constable, who was born at East Bergholt in 1776 and spent his formative years painting the water meadows, mill ponds, and skies of the Suffolk-Essex border. Constable's paintings of Flatford Mill, The Hay Wain, and Dedham Vale established a vision of the English countryside that shaped how the English think about their landscape, and the scenes he painted are so well preserved that visitors can stand at the exact spots where he set up his easel and compare the view with his canvases.
  • Ipswich has a remarkable medieval heritage that is often overlooked in favour of its more celebrated Suffolk neighbours. The town was one of the most important ports in medieval England, trading wool and cloth with the Low Countries and the Baltic, and it was the birthplace of Cardinal Wolsey, Henry VIII's Lord Chancellor and the most powerful man in England for nearly two decades. Wolsey founded a college in Ipswich in 1528 — intended to rival his other foundation, Christ Church Oxford — but it was dissolved after his fall from power in 1530 and only the gateway survives, now incorporated into a school.
