Free village parking at Walberswick common for river access
Walberswick Common Parking is a free, council-operated unpaved lot serving the Walberswick village centre and river crossing. It offers approximately 20 marked bays including two disabled-access spaces located near the entrance gate. Operating hours are sunriseĀsunset daily; no charges; maximum stay 24 hours. The gravel surface is lightly graded to manage drainage and inspected quarterly; minor ruts and potholes are filled within 48 hours. No lighting or CCTV is installed to preserve the rural ambiance; visitors should park only during daylight. Pedestrian pathways lead directly to Walberswick village centre (1 minute walk) and to the River Blyth footbridge (3 minutes). Monthly litter clearance and hedge trimming maintain a tidy village entry. No EV charging is available; nearest public charger is at Harbour West Car Park, Southwold, a 10-minute drive away.
