An Orford Day Out, Orford, Suffolk - 17th February 2018

Orford's another of the places that we haven't been to for a while, so armed with English Heritage membership we head off to the castle for a small picnic, some climbing in the climbey-tree and a trip to the quay - featuring the awesome smoked cheddar from the Pinney's shop.
