Blundeston & Flixton E04009487 & E04009507 Area Summary Blundeston is a village and parish in the Waveney district of Suffolk. It is in the very north of the county, about 2 miles inland from the North Sea, and sits between the towns of Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft, close to the North Sea coast. Blundeston Prison, located on the southern edge of the village, closed following a restructuring of the prison estate in 2013. The site has since been sold to a property developer for £3m. Flixton is the smaller of the two parishes with a population of under 50. The parish church, St. Andrews, has lain in ruins since a storm in 1703.
