   St Mary Church, Bawdsey. Bawdsey is the end of the line, whichever way you look at it. And there are essentially two ways of looking at it; most famously, from Felixstowe Ferry, on the far bank of the Deben, where walkers and weekend sailors sit outside the pubs gazing across to the pine forests and heathland of the Bawdsey Peninsula. The amazing Bawdsey Manor, a Victorian confection of Elizabethanisms, faces back, and was where radar was developed. You see it as you walk from Old Felixstowe, past the martello towers to the Ship Inn. Or, you can look at Bawdsey from the peninsula itself, where two lonely roads come together at Alderton, and thread through to the Manor, where they stop. In medieval times, Bawdsey was part of the Kingshaven, a group of harbours around the mouth of the Deben.
