Ipswich, the largest and county town of Suffolk, takes its name from the medieval name 'Gippeswic'. Over its more than 1,000-year history, Ipswich has acquired a mix of the unexpected, strange, weird and wonderful examples of buildings and the people associated with them. According to archaeological evidence, Ipswich is the site of a large Roman fort and the largest Roman villa in Suffolk. The old adage of looking up when going round any town is as true to Ipswich as with any town; for 'it is up' where many interesting gems of architecture, embellishments and ornamentations will be found.
