Orford Ness is a cuspate foreland shingle spit on the Suffolk coast in Great Britain linked to the mainland at Aldeburgh and stretching along the coast to Orford and down to North Wier Point opposite Shingle Street. It is divided from the mainland by the River Alde and was formed by longshore drift along the coast. The material of the spit comes from places further north such as Dunwich. Near the middle point of its length at the foreland point or ‘Ness’ lies the Orfordness Lighthouse.
