Halesworth

In the charming - and very ancient - Halesworth main street next to Bay Tree Bistro, formerly Warners Wine Bar (with its ornate and suspiciously charred) carved surrounds, is a passageway to a car park. The shop to the right (out of shot in the picture below) used to belong to the grandfather of broadcaster, David Frost:
'FROST & SON
IRONMONGERS'
can still be read inside the arch.


The passage way probably once led to a bustling back yard, with horses, carts, metalwork and hardware supplies in abundance. It now leads to a carpark.
