Southwold Pier, Southwold
A beautiful Suffolk seaside town, Southwold has many attractions in its midst, including a working lighthouse, pretty beach huts and a busy harbour.

However, it was brilliantly rebuilt and refurbished from 1999-2001 and now welcomes hundreds of visitors for food and fun as one of the best East Anglian piers.
