Along the east coast of Suffolk lies a narrow strip of undeveloped countryside. Comprising woodland, rolling hills, wetlands and heaths, this area is now an `Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'. In this well-illustrated study, Tom Williamson explores the fortunes of the so-called `Suffolk Coasts and Heaths' region, examining such themes as the reclamation of wetlands through the centuries, the significance of this region to prehistoric and Anglian farmers, its natural resources, including wind and windmills, its settlements and plantations, its castles and fortifications, its manmade and natural landscapes and its popularity today as a tourist destination.
