This book romps through the rolling countryside and along the shingled
coastline of Suffolk, unearthing the curious along the way. Sandwiched
between ecclesiastical penances handed down to adulterers and
fornicators, and the odd porcelain incendiary bombs commemorating the
Zeppelin raids, is an alphabetical cornucopia of strange, spooky and
mysterious facts about the county. Is the supposedly ancient game of
dwile flonking quite so old? What did writers like Pepys and Defoe say
about Suffolk cheese? Which tower was probably just built to curry
favour with the monarch? And who was the unknown, self-taught
archaeologist who made one of the most significant finds of all time?
The A-Z of Curious Suffolk is a book to dip into, unless of course you
can't wait to turn the page and read more!
