Bawdsey is a parish and village 10 miles south east from Woodbridge, or by ferry 8½, and 9 south east from the Great Eastern railway station at Melton, in the Eastern division of the county, Wilford Hundred.
The village is in view of the sea, and there is a ferry across the river Deben (4½ miles) to Felixstowe.

I get hundreds of emails every day, fortunately most 'spam mails' are deleted by my mail scan settings. The final emails are delivered to various email addresses, and replying to these are not always successful. If you do not hear from me in a timely fashion, please feel free to email again, I do not mind! This is a pure PUBS history site, I doubt if I know where the PUBS are NOW, but try the site for where they were a hundred years ago, again enjoy!
