It was to Framlingham that Mary Tudor came in 1553 to gather her supporters, and from here she was proclaimed queen. The great 12th-century castle still stands above the town, its curtain wall walkable right round the top. In St Michael’s church below lie the elaborate tombs of the Howard dukes of Norfolk. Wickham Market station is about 9km south-east.
