Around Beautiful Bury
A fantastic market town in Suffolk. 

Best Saturday market in this area. 

If you happen to be here around Christmas time, don't miss out on the Christmas market - one of the biggest in UK 🇬🇧.

The Abbey Gate is the main entrance to the gardens of the Bury St Edmunds Abbey.  It's also right across the street from a small square on the edge of the pedestrian street leading to the heart of town.
