From York we drove to Cambridge to meet up with relatives and we then all went to the coast at Southwold for a couple of days.  We stayed at a B&B near a tiny country village called Uggershot.  The house we stayed in was built in 1609.  The lady who ran the B&B told us about a storm earlier in the week where her grand old oak tree was struck by lightening and split in two.  She said the noise the lightening made could be heard several miles away.
