With this mild weather is it worth starting some tomato seeds in my greenhouse not heated or is winter still coming location Suffolk coast ?

Not a really good option dude
Not yet! Far too soon.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
They need light as well as heat, the days are drawing out now but still not enough hours of light. Have sown early and late they all ripen around the same time so patience my friend. Was still eating the last of mine late October from Spring sowing.

or Winter might sneak up when we're not looking and bite us on the *rse?
No Verdun we can sugest, when they actually do get sown is then up to them. Who among us have not sown early then cursed as a month of frost wrecked our initial joy. We who have lived long enough know Verdun is correct, this is the good old British unpredictable weather or else unknowingly we had climate change before it was invented. If we on our small Island think we can change things I say read the world news, Asia will put seven million vehicles on the road and light up a coal fired power station every month. How can we stop that i ask ?
