town’s rich heritage, with old

Merchant Houses and ‘Scores’,

which were the original

pathways leading down to the

old fishing village.

One of the most popular areas

of old Lowestoft is Belle Vue Park

area of the town provides a link

between the old and the new.

onshore wind turbine, which

towers 126 metres above the

volunteers brimming with

knowledge of times past. The

East Suffolk Maritime Museum is

part of the National Museums

Accreditation Scheme and it

looks back at the town’s rich

maritime heritage and history

with the sea.

Museum is a unique project

encompassing a fully working

museum of public and private

transport of bygone days,

explore the comprehensive

collection of buses, cars and

period artefacts.
