Where Are We?
Deben? so where is that then? The Deben is a river that flows through Woodbridge, and joins the sea between Bawdsey, and Felixstowe. To the south is Ipswich and Colchester, To the West is Stowmarket, Bury St Edmunds and Cambridge and further to the north is Norwich. All of these places are in rotary district 1080.
On the hill overlooking Woodbridge is the Sutton Hoo burial, where an Anglo Saxon ship was dragged from the Deben and filled with treasure. To the north of the river is Rendlesham Forest - site of alledged UFO activity, and the location of Bentwaters, the air base which was to be blown up in Frederick Forsyth's book "The Fourth Protocol"
