The village of Blundeston was used as one of the settings for the classic Charles Dickens novel David Copperfield. Dickens had been a visitor to the area and so used 'Blunderstone' as the birthplace of David Copperfield

Blunderston's Millennium Green is one of 250 new "breathing spaces" being created across the country, created as areas of open space to be enjoyed permanently by local communities.

Many years ago most villages had a pound where stray animals were locked up until their owners collected them. Unlike this one very few still remain today.

Looking across the fields towards the church of St Mary, the official name of the church is St Mary the Virgin, Blunderston with St Andrew, Flixton, this came about when in 1705 the church at nearby Flixton was destroyed in a gale and never repaired so in 1724 the two parishes were joined into one hence the long name, the font from St Andrews church today stands in St Mary's churchyard.

The round tower of St Mary's is an original Saxon tower pre dating the Norman conquest of 1066, as can be seen some 400 hundred years later the tower was heightened. Over the centuries various churches have been built onto the tower and many parts of these remain and are incorporated into the present church.
