About Fencing in Bury St Edmunds
Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk grew around a great Benedictine abbey founded in 1020 to house the remains of the martyred King Edmund, which became one of medieval England's most important pilgrimage sites before Henry VIII dissolved it in 1539, leaving the abbey ruins that still dominate the town's gardens today. By 1327 the abbey owned all of West Suffolk. Our directory lists fencing suppliers and installers covering the IP33 postcode area.
