Shingle Street Suffolk Map

About Shingle Street

Shingle Street, a quiet hamlet of East Suffolk, breathes the salt-laden air of the English coast. It lies 10.1 km north-east of Felixstowe (from Felixstowe: bearing 41°T, OS grid TM 366 426), and is situated south-east of Hollesley village. The landscape here is a canvas of shifting sands and sea-marsh, where the sky often stretches in an unbroken expanse, mirroring the vastness of the nearby North Sea. A sense of enduring solitude pervades Shingle Street, a feeling amplified by the whisper of wind through marram grass. The very essence of the place seems to be carved by the tireless ebb and flow of the tide, a constant, quiet dialogue between land and water. Few structures mark this remote stretch, lending Shingle Street an air of elemental simplicity.
