Hi, Hacheston is the Ipswich side of Woodbride, if you head to Framlingham you'll miss it! You turn left at ' Wyevales' off the A12 at Woodbridge, be prepared not to blink----- it's a small place!

Hi Steph I have rellies from Ipswich area including Framlingham and Woodbridge and I use the Ipswich RO. They are very friendly and helpful but do book a Fiche machine before you go. It's easy to find off the A14 too. Kat

Hi, I go to Suffolk Record Office a lot. I would say that Ipswich is closest to the Woodbridge area. I have been to the Bury St Edmunds records office too but I prefer Ipswich. Cheers, Horatia
