Well worth a visit when you are next in Ipswich. There's an information room upstairs, in a strange room with homaphradites depicted on the wall paintings.

Staff are probably the best trained that you will find outside of London. I’ve been going here for 26 years and I hope to be shopping here for another 26 at least. Pinnacle of a shopping experience. I will never buy another piece of clothing from Ipswich again if that shop shuts.
