So, you have never experienced our North Sea, Linda. One toe dip in that water would change your mind!

As I said below to Sheri - I was standing in the sea to take this, but I cropped out the beach to focus just on the huts and houses.

Many Thanks, Volker.

Hi Coco - lots of colour indeed - no two are alike. They are expensive and exclusive. People hand them on through the generations.

Many Thanks

David

We have them too, David ~ but not nearly as charming as the ones there at Southwold! Cheers, Coco

Hi Sheri - yes - I was standing in the sea with camera on tripod for this, but I've cropped out the beach. These huts are a very famous feature of Southwold; there must be several hundred along the promenade that runs for about 1.5 miles. Very expensive to buy. Thousands of pounds.

Cheers

Really? Β They cost that much to rent or own? Β Standing in the sea...giggles, what we do for a shot!!

They are that expensive to own - often they are owned by families and passed on through the generations.

Wowsers!! Β They can't be all that big, what 600 sq feet, small. Β Thanks for filling my brain with more interesting fun facts.

You may be familiar with them first hand, Patricia. Quite pricey these days - I saw one on the market for Β£15,000!

Many Thanks

I am familiar with them....The funny thing is that whenever I go to Southwold it seems to rain!!!....I end up in the amber shop ...or eating on the pier or going to the fishing quay.....A very interesting place!!

That is pricey!!....but we got rid of our static caravan because that went pricey too!!

We were lucky this year - mostly very good weather. But, I agree, Southwold is no stranger to the rain. I know the amber shop - apparently amber was a common find on the beach and was also brought in from trawler nets. Do you mean the fishing quay down by the river? There is a most excellent fish restaurant down there now. Worth a visit, but booking essential!

Cheers
