Looking for Man and Van Hire in Ipswich?

Ipswich, North Sea port town and borough (district), administrative and historic county of Suffolk, England. Located at the head of the Orwell estuary, in the southeastern part of the county, Ipswich is the county town (seat) and administrative center of Suffolk.

Ipswich prospered as a port for the export of East Anglian textiles from medieval times to the 17th century. In 1200 King John granted the town its first charter, and the town was incorporated in 1446. A period of decline was followed by renewed expansion in the 19th century when light engineering firms were established there. Engineering and various agricultural industries have remained important. Ipswich harbour extends 11 miles (18 km) downstream to Shotley Point and is still of modest importance, but the town prospers mainly as a major agricultural market and service center for the extensive and rich farming area of Suffolk.

Outstanding buildings in Ipswich include Christchurch Mansion (16th century) and Sparrowe’s House, in part a 15th-century structure with a 17th-century pargeted facade. The older churches are nearly all towered flint structures, wholly or mainly Perpendicular in style. There are several old coaching inns, including the Great White Horse of Pickwick Papers fame. Ipswich was the birthplace of Thomas Cardinal Wolsey
