Home to the Blues, any list of Ipswich landmarks would not be complete with Portman Road. 

The football stadium is easily recognisable and the roof can be seen from most of the town centre.

One of Ipswich's most iconic structures, the blacked out building is located in Princes Street. 

The building was built in 1975 and was cited by Norman Foster as one of his favourite buildings. 

Giles statue

Also known as the 'Grandma' statue, the piece depicts the late cartoonist Carl Giles' most popular characters.

Having graced the street of Ipswich since 1993, the cartoon character has not been on her own with the statue also featuring other characters from the Giles family cartoon.

Alongside Grandma are twins Lawrence and Ralph and Rush the dog.

The Copdock Interchange is the first sign of Ipswich if you are heading to the town from the A12 in Essex.

Home to the former Toys 'R' Us building, people knew they were back to Ipswich when they reached the iconic roundabout.
