About Normanston
Where to stay in Normanston
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Normanston is a residential part of Lowestoft, so rooms here are scarce and most visitors book in the town proper. That is the practical answer. Anyone staying close to St Margaret's Church or the Raglan Street Smoke House trades hotel choice for quiet streets, off-road parking and a short run into the middle of Lowestoft.
About Normanston
What are the main landmarks in Normanston?
St Margaret's Church is the landmark here. St Benedict and a meeting house of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints serve the streets around it, and the Raglan Street Smoke House carries its old trade in its name on a run of plain brick frontages. Manor House stands close by, one more piece of the district's older fabric.
What is the history of Normanston?
Normanston's past sits in its buildings rather than its records. Manor House and St Margaret's Church are the oldest names on the district's map, and the Raglan Street Smoke House points to the working trades that shared these streets with housing as Lowestoft spread. The rest is ordinary.
