      People with the strongest Suffolk accents pronounce #Lavenham as 'Lane-am'. Was once told off for not saying it this way

      I love such local pronunciations :) (And have to admit to mild irritation when non-locals try to replace them!)

      My favourite is 'Woonus', i.e. Onehouse in Suffolk. Say it in RP and the locals have no idea what you're talking about

      Wonderful! :) Around here, I like 'Sollerby' for Saltfleetby! :) (and Loweth for Louth, which goes back to medieval period)

          Interesting that you *add* a syllable-that never happens in Suffolk, although vowels can be lengthened eg Cewney for Coney

          Yes, intriguing isn't it!? But spellings confirming this local pronunciation go back to at least the 15thC, iirc :)

          One I like is Southwell (just over in Notts) some locals (I had centenarian aunt there) call it 'Suthull'

          interesting - I did counselling work in Newark, often got clients from there, most said South-Well

          Not sure where I picked up my pronunciation, tbh, but now often find ppl living here pronouncing 'S~by'+'Louth' "wrong" too!
