Southwold, in Suffolk, had a population of around 1,100 at the 2021 census — a small coastal town known for a lighthouse that stands right among its houses.
A lighthouse in the middle of town
Southwold's white lighthouse, built in 1890, stands right in the middle of the town rather than out on the coast, a result of how the town was laid out after a major fire in 1659. Southwold is also home to Adnams, a brewery that has been operating in the town since 1872, and it was where the writer George Orwell's family lived for many years.
What that history doesn't leave behind
This town's history doesn't come with a dedicated sweet shop set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines — not the kind of retail a town this size tends to support locally.
Why Southwold shoppers order online anyway
For anything past a corner-shop bag, ordering online is more consistent — no trip into Ipswich or Lowestoft required.
