Bungay
Bungay market town sits in the Waveney Valley, partly encircled by the River Waveney, with views of picturesque water meadows.
The streets are full of historic character and offer several independent shops, restaurants, tea and coffee shops, cafes and bars.
Thursday is market day in Bungay, and Earsham Street is where you’ll find many of Bungay’s shops. Take a look at the ruins of Bigod’s Castle, built in 1170, details of which can be found at the castle visitor centre on Cross
Street. Bungay Festival, focused around the castle, is held in July.
The town museum is in the District Council Office in Broad Street, and St. Mary's Church, with its tall tower, is the site of the famous local Legend of
Black Shuck.
