Vibrant and charming market town. With a variety of historic buildings, churches, shops and the River Waveney encircling the town, Bungay provides the perfect location for a day out.
Bungay is a vibrant and charming market town, situated in a loop of the River Waveney. The town is steeped in rich history and displays a Saxon Church, remains of a Norman castle, Roman well and a Benedictine priory. The town is primarily built around the castle on a hill partially surrounded by the River Waveney. The famous Buttercross was rebuilt after the Great Fire in 1688, which in earlier times was used as a prison with a dungeon, now it is used to hold weekly markets.
