Hyldon Court
Hyldon Court, Orwell Rd, Felixstowe. An early Edwardian building with assorted sea creatures, shells, swags of fruit and little cherubs displayed in the plasterwork.
There is a date on the building, which at first glance could be taken for the date of its construction. But, if you look more carefully, you can see that the date is an impossible 1338. Why? It is, in fact, a locally significant date for that is when Edward III assembled a fleet in the nearby creek in the hope of defeating our then enemy, France. The building has now been converted into apartments.
