LOCATION
Set within the picturesque countryside of the Deben Valley, a designated special landscaped area, Easton is renowned for its crinkle crankle wall, which is thought to be one of the longest in the country.
The village, which was formerly the focal point of the Duke of Hamilton’s Estate, has its own vernacular architecture, evident in many of the village houses and properties. The village has a thriving local pub and good primary school, together with a thriving cricket club, and is also home to the Hamilton Blood Hounds, whilst the popular Easton Farm Park sits on the edge of the village.
The village is easily accessible to Framlingham (3 miles), Wickham Market (2 miles) and Woodbridge (9 miles), all of which provide an excellent range of local shopping and commercial facilities. The A12 dual carriageway bypasses Wickham Market and connects to the county town of Ipswich and beyond to the region’s main road network. Rail services run from nearby Wickham Market to London’s Liverpool Street Station, via Ipswich.
