Leiston - pictures, information, and links
Out in the Suffolk countryside, just over one mile away from the beach at Sizewell, near Aldeburgh and Thorpeness, lies the small town of Leiston (or Leiston-cum-Sizewell, to be precise).
The countryside in this particular part of Suffolk is very much alive, offering plenty of places to walk: past the nuclear power plants, heading up the coast, you can find the Sizewell Belts; on the opposite side of the power plants, heading down, you can find North Warren and Aldringham Walks along the Suffolk Sandlings.
