There was a different feel in the air this week across Suffolk as temperatures warmed up and life was captured in a series of wonderful images.

This week, we saw World Book Day celebrated across the county, hope restored in Thorpeness as temporary sea defences arrived, and Ipswich Town boss Kieran McKenna celebrated 100 match wins.

Scroll down below to see how the county looked between 2 and 6 March.
