About Woodbridge

In the English county of Suffolk, the town of Woodbridge serves as a port and market. It’s located 13 kilometers (or 8.2 miles) inland from the coast, on the River Deben. It is a part of the greater Ipswich metropolitan region and can be found 7 miles (11 km) to the north-east of the city of Ipswich. At the time of the Domesday Book in 1086, there were 35 households in this town, and it was located near several important Anglo-Saxon archaeological sites, including as the Sutton Hoo burial ship. Located on the Suffolk Coast and Heath Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it is famous for its boating harbour and tide mill.

There is still debate among historians about where the name Woodbridge came from. It is thought to be a mix of the Old English words wudu (wood) and brycg (bridge), according to the Dictionary of British Placenames (bridge). However, Saxon notes in the magazine published by the Sutton Hoo Societies that there is nowhere suitable for a bridge to be built at Woodbridge, and that the next place where the river may be forded is not until Wilford, where the present bridge is located, miles upstream.
