Dunwich
It’s hard to believe that the sleepy village of Dunwich on the Suffolk coast was once a bustling port city with a population of 4,000.
It might have been still, if the sea hadn't eaten away at it, leading to its almost complete abandonment by the 19th century. Despite being downsized,
there are still clear reminders of its heyday, including the ruins of a
Franciscan priory, while the natural splendour of Dunwich Heath is still intact.
