It was originally part of the estates of the powerful Abbey of Bury St Edmunds, which controlled much of the region during the medieval era. The towns name is believed to derive from the Old English Becc-Les, meaning meadow by the stream During the 12th century, Beccles became known for its thriving fishing industry, particularly in pike and eels from the River Waveney, which played a crucial role in its early economy. By the 14th Century, the town had established itself as a prosperous market centre, a status it has retained for centuries. The towns historic heart is characterised by its beautiful Georgian and Tudor architecture, with St Michaels Church, built in the 16th century, standing as one of its most prominent landmarks. Beccles market tradition continues to this day, with a weekly market held in the town centre. During the 19th century, the arrival of the railway further boosted Beccles growth, linking it to key regional hubs such as Ipswich and Norwich. Today, the town is a picturesque blend of history and modern living.<br/><br/><b>what3words /// </b> <a target="_blank" href="https://what3words.com/stance.fairway.softest">stance.fairway.softest</a><br/><br/><b>Notice</b><br/>Please note that we have not tested any apparatus, equipment, fixtures, fittings or services and as so cannot verify that they are in working order or fit for their purpose.
