Halesworth serves as a market town for the surrounding agricultural land, with the River Blyth flowing through its centre. The town's layout retains a historic core, and the restored Halesworth railway station now functions as a community arts venue. The town is connected to the Suffolk Coast by the Southwold Railway footpath, a trail following the route of a former narrow-gauge line.
