Suffolk, one of the most eastern counties of England, and one of the most interesting agricultural and maritime divisions of the kingdom, comprises an area of 1515 square statute miles, or about 969600 acres of land, watered by many navigable rivers and smaller streams, and possessing all varieties of soil from a light steril sand to a rich loam. It is of an irregular figure extending only about 56 miles in a direct line from east to west, and 32 from north to south; though its eastern side occupies about 50 miles of sea coast, sweeping in a curved line from the estuary of the Orwell and Stour, near Harwich, northward to Yarmouth, where it terminates in a narrow apex; from whence a line drawn across the county, in a south-westerly direction to Haverhill, at its south-western angle, is more than 70 miles in length. Lowestoft is the most easterly point of England. Suffolk increased its population from 210,431 souls in 1801 to 315,073 in 1841 and compared with the other counties in England, it ranks as the eighth in agricultural and fifteenth in total population. There is a compamion book to this volume entitled Registration Districts of Norfolk in 1836 with maps and list of parishes. ==== end of file ====
