Hadleigh

Hadleigh is a charming market town set in delightful rolling countryside next to the River Brett in Suffolk, England, 9 miles from Ipswich and 15 miles from Colchester.

The backbone of Hadleigh is the long and delightful High Street, full of independent shops, pubs and cafes. Look out for the medieval Deanery Tower, St Mary’s church and The Guildhall.

Poet Sir John Betjeman wrote, ‘Hadleigh is one of the most perfect small towns in England, with trees, old red brick, flint and plaster and that unassuming beauty of East Anglia which changes to glory in sunlight.’
