Suffolk

The area around Leiston.

Leiston is an East Suffolk town that grew around the Garrett engineering works, now the Long Shop museum, and lives beside the Sizewell nuclear power stations. The construction of Sizewell C has brought large numbers of workers and contractors, raising demand for rentals, trades, food and hospitality. Housing is mostly Victorian terraces and newer estates. Businesses should be clear about availability and speak to both residents and visiting workers, naming Sizewell, Theberton and Knodishall.

The nearest towns in the same council area are Saxmundham (4 miles), Aldeburgh (4 miles), Southwold (9 miles) and Halesworth (10 miles). If you cover some of these and not others, the site should name the ones you do.

Within Leiston itself, we build for businesses in Sizewell, Theberton, Knodishall, Aldringham, Coldfair Green and Eastbridge.

Leiston (postcode area IP) sits about 243 miles north-east of Exeter.
