Dunwich

Dunwich, Suffolk · United Kingdom · Natural site

The town that vanished beneath the sea. Its church bells are still heard tolling from the depths.

Dunwich was once the sixth largest town in England. Today it is little more than a small coastal village. To walk the beach at dusk is to feel the true thrill of haunted England. The bells of the town's churches are said to ring from beneath the sea, and the souls of drowned fishermen are seen as gulls. Source: Haunted Places in Britain (PDF compilation).
