A Trip to Orford Castle, Orford, Suffolk - 26th February 2022

We drive over to Orford for a few hours' visit. First, we're in Pinney's to get some smoked food products, then after that we go for a walk along the coast path, do a trip to the castle - which is covered in scaffolding as it's having its render replaced - and then stop for a drink in the King's Head pub. On the way back to the car park we have a quick look at the church of St. Bartholemew and its recent-ish new organ.
