Local Information

Ipswich is the county town of Suffolk and a major commercial centre in the East of England. Ipswich is one of the fastest growing centres in Europe and over the past few years the rate of change has been spectacular.

Everywhere you look you see regeneration and it is often on a huge scale – the Waterfront, the new University Campus, Suffolk One, Encore Hotel development, Ravenswood, Kesgrave, and more, giving Ipswich a vibrant and dynamic economy.

Take in the nightclubs, pubs, cafes and bars, as well as beautiful parks, art galleries, museums, cinemas, theatres, marinas, great shopping and excellent sports facilities.
And, of course, we have Ipswich Town Football Club!
