"At the junction with Broughton Road there is a most attractive southward view to the small Suffolk White brick mansion (No.25 Broughton Road) by the Ipswich architect Alfred Hubert and built in 1875. From here St Edmunds Road narrows considerably to be barely wider than a track and plunges steeply downhill toward the bottom of Constitution Hill. The scrub planting in the verge becomes dense and combined with the planting within the large garden of No.36 the winding alignment of the upper part of the track gives an almost rural appearance. The pleasing semi-rural character of the conservation area at this point is determined primarily by the informality of the highway; the prominence of trees in relation to the scale of development and the steeply sloping topography." http://www.ipswich.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/CE048A7E-6D08-4E34-B26C-C60AB61A66BD/0/Park.pdf
