As others have said, the section from Walsh lane to Bungay road wasn't clearly a footpath, so you might want to carry on up the road and take the left onto honeypot lane instead....

Id probably stick to wash lane a little longer and pick up the same route past the church Kirby Cane and take the left on honeypot lane....

At the Beccles end we had to deviate a little given a bit of flooding near the boat yard but it was along a paved (still slightly flooded path) rather than crossing the playground area and very close. In early march it was a bit muddy and slippy between the boat yard and the marsh road turn off (probably a circular walk from town) so the suggestion for an alternative in the description might be worth it if you know it's rained a lot. There was one path after you turn into the Carlton marsh that's clearly a footpath on the OS map and had a footpath plastic disk but we were not sure as the gate said private on the other side. The turnoff in Oulton Broad after crossing the river was a little hidden and the path was between high metal fences....

I shall try to find and record a safer route between Halesworth and Beccles if possible but 90 percent of this route from Redisham to the Southern end of Beccles is on a narrow and fast B road with no pavement. The final detour around the West side of the school playing field on the South of Beccles to the very top of Ringsfield Road is in no way accessible to those using a wheelchair. If wheeling instead of walking then best to stay on Ringsfield Rd and pass the high school on your way North to St Michael’s Bell Tower....
