The Westgate ward of Ipswich is the inspiration for this community sound collage, created using words contributed by local people who know and love this place.

This audio experience can be accompanied by a 30-minute walk through Westgate. Some of the stories have been inspired by the buildings that you’ll pass on the way, and you’re invited to carry on exploring the town to discover the other sights mentioned.

As you walk, a digital turning dial scans the imaginary airwaves picking up memories of shops and parties, celebrating ancient buildings, sharing stories of local legends from across the town.
