Snape
Snape was once a thriving port. Barley was malted at the maltings and then shipped to London and across Europe on Thames barges.

The maltings has now been converted into a music venue where the Aldeburgh music festival is held. There are also several bespoke shops around the site and a cafe and restaurant.
