Scole (
It lies on the north bank of the River Waveney.
The parish church of St Andrew was rebuilt in the 1960s after being destroyed in an arson attack. There is an east window by Patrick Reyntiens dating from 1963.[4]
Scole is the birthplace of William Gooderham (1792) and Ezekiel Gooderham (1794), founders of the Gooderham and Worts distillery in Toronto, Canada, later to be the largest in the British Empire.
