East Suffolk has beds of sand and clay deposited during the closing chapters of the series of geological epochs. In the region there are probably the greatest number of formations to be found in any such limited area. Basically everything rests on the Cretaceous chalk laid down over 70 million years ago. Locally there are at least 250' missing of the upper chalk which is represented on the Norfolk shore at Trimingham by the Ostrea lunata zone.

  • Little Japan and Barber’S Point Through the Trees
    Heritage, Heath & Hedgerow Historic nature walks with Aldeburgh Museum The Sailor’s Path is a well-worn route, initially used by seafarers, smugglers and fisherman. The full 6 mile route runs from Aldeburgh to Snape and offers a fascinating view of the picturesque River Alde. This walk, at 2.5 miles, offers an introduction to the route. This walk starts in the car park at the Aldeburgh end of the Sailor’s path. The route is well signposted. The patch of land behind the signpost, was used by the Royal Flying Corps in World War 1. They created a small single track railway to transport goods from their airbase at Hazlewood Hall across this patch of land to the Brick Dock jetty on the river. Notice the creeping buttercup along the edge of the path. Arriving at the open field to the left is a good viewpoint to see Yarn Hill which is other side of the river. It is said that St Botolph (Anglo-Saxon Saint of Travellers) wanted to build Iken church here but found it full of eerie and ghostly happenings and changed the church location to where it is today. Splendid yellow gorse in full flower is evident along the path and throughout the Suffolk coast. Less commonly named Furze or Whin, it has an almond/coconut like scent and is very prickly! It is an important nectar source for bees in Spring when few flowers have bloomed. The sad, dead trees to the left of the path before Marsh Cottage are evidence of the breach in the river wall and consequently the flooding of the Hazlewood marshes in 2013.
