The Great Port of Dunwich, 1280

This walk visits Dunwich at its height, a generation before the great storms that began in 1286. Expect a busy coastal town of many church towers, crowded quays and friaries on the cliff, where herring and wine ships lie at anchor and parish life fills narrow streets.

15 scenes, 10 streets, squares and views, 5 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Dunwich as it stood in 1280 (“Dunwich”).
