Lothingland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lothingland is an area in East Anglia, situated on the North Sea coast. It is bound by Breydon Water to the north, the River Waveney to the west and Oulton Broad to the south, and includes Lowestoft. [1]

There is a ward of the Waveney district by the name, and it is also a deanery in the Diocese of Norwich.

Historically it formed a half-hundred, which was usually combined into Mutford. A Lothingland Rural District (excluding Lowestoft) of East Suffolk existed until 1974 - this is now split between the borough of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk and Waveney.
