  Photographs of Suffolk towns and villages were among the first aerial photographs to be taken by Aerofilms, just after World War I. Eighty years later the same company archives provide a valuable source of historical evidence, illustrating the dramatic excavation of an Anglo-Saxon burial ship containing a fabulous treasure at Sutton Hoo on the eve of World War II. Prehistoric remains, landscape features, roads, railways and industry, country houses and suburbia can all be seen in these aerial views of Suffolk.
