Description
DescriptionFrom the introduction:
This tour covers the central and near northern areas of Ipswich. Most of the ground must be travelled by vehicle, but there are several places where some walking is required or is an option; there are also some steps. This tour ends at The Workshops Rail Museum in North Ipswich, where you may happily spend a number of hours.
During your drive take time to admire the many fine examples of surviving heritage buildings. These range from modest workers’ houses (many originally only two rooms), to more elite hilltop residences, as well as commercial buildings with intact facades.
