More about this scene
These cottages on the green, against the backdrop of the church, are probably the most photographed houses in Suffolk. Church Cottages, or Hyde Park Corner Cottages, are five almshouses run by the George Savage Trust. In 1971 they were severely damaged by fire, and were rebuilt and reopened in 1972. To the left is the sign of the Five Bells.
