Dunwich Heath
Dunwich Heath in Suffolk is a haunting stretch of lowland heathland perched above a coast that has been slowly surrendering to the sea for centuries. The cliffs here are soft and crumbling, and the village of Dunwich that once rivalled Bristol now lies mostly beneath the waves — a thought that gives the heath a melancholy grandeur you won't quickly forget. Heather and gorse blaze in summer, and the sea views are quietly magnificent.
