Within Suffolk, Newmarket is a market town, as the name might have suggested. This part of Suffolk is well worth a weekend of your time, with plenty to do and lots of impressive features such as the clock tower in the high street and the King Edward VII Memorial Gardens. Newmarket today is perhaps still best known for its racing headquarters which are at the forefront of the world's leading race-horsing and equine events. You'll find lots of things to do in Newmarket, whether you want to attend a pottery class, visit a heritage museum, spend time antique shopping or taking in the history, and of course, at the Newmarket Rowley Mile Racecourse.
