1. Snape village sign

(There is a detailed explanation of the sign on the 'official' Snape Village web site.)

 

 

83. The Old Mill House at the top of The Hill, Snape, once the home of Benjamin Britten. 

 

84. View from the top of the Hill, down to the crossroads, the Crown Inn and across the fields to Snape Maltings. You can just make out a red-sailed sailing barge moored at the Maltings, just by the Plough & Sail public house

.

 

85. The Crown Inn

 

86. The Crown Inn, 1976

I used to have a drink here every Friday night back in the seventies, and then walk over to Vic Last's Fish & chip shop for supper, great days. The two girls and the boy are local, Stuart and his wife are holding flags, next to them is Mick Meadows, and on the end is his wife Vivien, the girl in between is Stuart's daughter, I think.

87. Panorama. On the left is the Crown, on the right the yellow building is Vic Last's Fish & Chip shop, or rather it was.  It is now a private residence.

Stroll up the hill past the old Fish & Chip shop, towards Aldeburgh and you see the building going on....

91. Priory Lane, Snape

 

Back down the hill and... look down Priory Lane towards the Golden Key, then sit in the sun (sometimes) on the terrace.

Further down Priory Lane is... No.1 The Sands

94. No.1 The Sands

 

95. No.1 The Sands - back garden

 

On the land behind No.1 The Sands, Dean Smith has built this cottage. His lovely Staffordshire Bull Terrier is named Mabel - she was very friendly, and was wandering around the new cottage building plot.
