Overview

""Ed brings to life the history, charm, and character of these serpentine landmarks in a celebration of one of Suffolk's quirkiest treasures."" When Suffolk writer Ed Broom set out to find something uniquely local for a writing competition, he stumbled upon the curious charm of ""crinkle-crankle"" walls - sinuous, wavy brickwork found across the county. Inspired by the work of local historian Norman Scarfe, who first listed Suffolk's walls in the 1960s, Ed began compiling his own detailed survey. What started as a curiosity has grown into a years-long project of discovery: every time he thought he had finished, another wall appeared. The Crinkle-Crankle Crew documents many of these examples, weaving together local history, architecture, and a deep affection for Suffolk's landscape. Rich with stories, observation, and Ed's meticulous research, this book shines a light on an eccentric treasure that is as practical as it is beautiful.
