Two photos from the collection have been identified as having been taken in Felixstowe.

The small model boating lake which could really have been taken on any summer weekend, shows the Martello Tower Q on the hillside with the spire of the St. John the Baptiste church in the background.

There’s also Felix Court on Sea Road, this is now the Felsto Arms. Going by the registration number this photo was probably taken between 1935-1938.

Possibly taken around the same time as the images in Felixtowe, 1935-1938. There’s a lot of history to this Grade 1 listed pub going back to the 16th Century. Read more about it here.
