Suffolk

Lowestoft and the places nearby.

Lowestoft is the most easterly town in Britain, a Suffolk port with a fishing heritage and a growing role in offshore wind. It has sandy beaches to the south, and a mix of older terraced housing and post-war estates. The town has areas of deprivation alongside more comfortable districts. A site that names Oulton Broad, Pakefield and Carlton Colville reaches the residential areas locals identify with, and offshore firms create business-to-business demand.

Carlton Colville (3 miles), Beccles (8 miles), Southwold (11 miles) and Bungay (13 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Across the boundary into the next council area, Gorleston-on-Sea (7 miles) and Great Yarmouth (9 miles) are also close. A longer drive takes in Loddon (12 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.

Oulton Broad, Pakefield, Carlton Colville, Kessingland, Kirkley, Gunton and Oulton: if you work in particular parts of Lowestoft, those names belong on the site.

From our base in Exeter, Lowestoft is about 257 miles to the north-east. Its postcodes start NR.
