We took our lunch yesterday in Orford expecting to use that rather pleasant restaurant/cafe on the quay only to discover it's been a warehouse for the
oyster people for some years apparently. So we walked back to the King's Head which despite being run by Hotel Inspector Ruth Watson was surprisingly unpretentious, the food excellent, not that expensive and very generous in quantity, and the Adnams Broadside (always a dodgy one that, in most pubs how long has it been in the pipes?) in perfect condition. Gets a tick in our book. | |

Police are appealing again about the Roman duck brooch stolen from Orford Castle at the end of last month. Can't help but think that if it was an opportunist crime then the brooch could still be near the coast?
