  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

Situated beside woodland with walled gardens and a tennis court, the outside space is most attractive, while the property itself is comfortable and inviting. Living Local History For many years, Quidenham was a private village, owned by the family at Quidenham Hall, originally the seat of the Earls of Albermarle. The village has an attractive church and the hall itself still stands and is today a Carmelite monastery with a chapel where weekly Roman Catholic services are held. This particular home owes its character to the Georgian brick built front section and outer walls which enclose an older timber framed structure in the back part of the house, probably dating back to the 1700’s.

  • Electoral Review of Breckland Council Proposal for a Warding Pattern
    Electoral Review of Breckland Council Proposal for a warding pattern across Breckland Council to support a Council size of 50 Councillors September 2013 Breckland Council Page 1 05/09/13 Introduction The Council was pleased to receive notification from the Local Government Boundary Commission that the Council’s submission for a council size of 50 had been adopted. The Commission has now asked for submissions proposing Warding patterns that reflect this change. Any group or individual is able to put forward suggestions on Warding patterns for the district. The Local Government Boundary Commission for England will consider all submissions and propose a warding pattern for the district. The Council’s proposals follow the process undertaken by the Working Group of six councillors set up for the purpose of in-depth research into the issues relating to council size and warding. This is a cross- party group with members spread across the district. Guidance issued by the Local Government Boundary Commission suggests that three main rules are followed when a new pattern of wards are produced. They are: Delivering electoral equality for local voters – this means ensuring that each local councillor represents roughly the same number of people so that the value of your vote is the same regardless of where you live in the local authority. Reflecting the interests and identities of local communities – this means establishing electoral arrangements which, as far as possible, maintain local ties and where boundaries are easily identifiable. Promoting effective and convenient local government – this means ensuring that the new wards or electoral divisions can be represented effectively by their elected representative(s) and that the new electoral arrangements as a whole allow the local authority to conduct is business effectively.
