Premier Inn Ipswich South East

UGC Cinema Complex

by Carnation

This is a huge entertainment centre. Only a few years old and houses cinemas, restaurants, bars, takeaways and nighclubs. Extremely popular with the younger generation. An evening of perhaps seeing a movie and then a nice relaxing meal in the restaurant or straight on to nightclubbing, it's all here! Parking facilities are also available.

St. Matthews Church

by Airpunk

Although St. Matthews is still a running church, services to not take place regularly here and the church is not open to normal visitors (by appointment only). That's a pity as it houses a medieval font (seven sacrament fonts of which only around forty remain in the UK, most of them in Suffolk and Norfolk) which is among Suffolk's best-known church treasures. The 15th century church has maintained its medieval style and during the restoration and extension work of the 19th century, the style wasn't changed either.
St. Matthews Church is a little isloated from the city center due to road construction works of the 1960s. Although this looks scary enough when you look at it, another constrcution is even scarier: The church school is built on the former graveyard...

Ipswich Best Avoided

by mariegriffiths

"Ipswich is Awful"

I lived in Ipswich for 6 years and never befriended any of the locals only other strangers in town. There really isn't much to do and it is a long way from any main towns. There are plenty of other places in Britain far more worthy of a visit.
