Learn About

Welcome to Dunwich. This sleepy seaside village has echoes of a very different past, when the borough was a leader amongst East Anglian towns, a thriving port and market town. Enjoy a day out with your class seeing for yourselves the effects of coastal erosion and the ongoing struggle against the ever encroaching sea. Enjoy the sensory experience of the beach and the fragile cliffs. Let your class make hypotheses about the things they are seeing and hearing. Try our cross curricula Pick and Mix of ideas, highlighting skills and learning objectives. Above all explore our stunning collection of visual images bringing to life the story of Medieval times and the reality of forces beyond our control.
