Aldeburgh History
There are 64 listed building and monuments with Moot Hall, dating from 1520, as one of the oldest.
Famous as the residence of composer Benjamin Britten, the international Aldeburgh Festival of arts at nearby Snape Maltings was his idea back in 1948. Aldeburgh still has an annual poetry festival and several thriving food festivals.
Although most of it has been lost to the sea, Aldeburgh was a significant Tudor shipbuilding port and was given borough status by Henry VIII in 1529.
Unfortunately, as the river Alde gradually silted up, so did the shipbuilding but Aldeburgh regained its notoriety as a Victorian seaside holiday destination.
