My father seemed to think they lived in either Pretoria or Coast Guard Cottages just off Beach Road.

This is the occupant of the newest of the five graves and I guess must have been the grandson of either Robert, Henry or Arthur Bales, who occupy the other three graves. I did pick up the May edition of the 'Heacham Newsletter' and noticed there is an interest in what happened to families from the area, so any information that may still be in the memories of local residents would be nice to know.

    Issue 37 Village Voice Parish Council Report The Parish Council meeting held on 26 September agreed that the new bus shelter to be installed opposite Thaxter’s would be a modern transparent design; it is hoped that a grant will cover a substantial part of the cost. Various issues linked with the general tidiness of the area in Bank Road behind Earl Close were discussed. It was agreed to clean up the litter and clear some of the undergrowth. The Borough Council had offered bulbs for enhancing villages: a Parishioner at the meeting suggested that these could be planted around the village sign at the entrance to the village. The meeting on 31 October began with a presentation to Bob Tipling and Stella Caunt to mark the Council’s appreciation of their work in producing Village Voice. The Council then heard two presentations. The first was from the West Norfolk Council for Voluntary Services, which supports national and local voluntary organisations by providing advice, funding and training. The talk was given by Polly Jackson, whose job is to promote volunteering in rural areas. Any individual or organisation interested in contacting her can do so through the Parish Council office. The second presentation was by Julie Hardingham, who is promoting an initiative to open a Day Care Centre for babies and children, which will also offer before and after school clubs and holiday clubs for children up to age 11. She described how a survey had identified a real need for both a playgroup and after-school facility and explained that everything was now in place to provide this.

    Dersingham Village Voice

    Dersingham Village Voice Issue 46 June 2007 IT’S THE END OF AN ERA! Honorary Alderman George Pratt, who has lived in the village since 1953 and has been a Member of Norfolk County Council (16 years), Docking Rural District Council (15 years) and West Norfolk Council (12 years) has decided to withdraw from the local political scene, having not put himself up for election to Dersingham Parish Council this year, after some 45 years of service to the local community. George, a former Chairman of the Parish Council, will be sorely missed by his colleagues as his knowledge of the local area and of local government procedure and protocol have always been a major asset to them. We of the Village voice wish him well in his well-deserved retirement. AND LET US NOT FORGET TO THANK THOSE OTHERS WHO HAVE DECIDED NOT TO REMAIN ON THE PARISH COUNCIL… for the efforts of former Councillors Sue Payne, Colin Smith and Andrew Seal must not be overlooked as each has played a major part in the management of the village over the past two to four years - good luck to each of them in whatever they aspire to do in the future. AND WHERE DO THE REMAINING NINE MEMBERS GO FROM HERE? Parish Council Report The full Council meeting held on 26 March considered the findings of a meeting held on 22 March between the Council, Mr N Kelk and Rev M Brock. The Church Hall was considered to be the best choice for a Village Hall but it may in the long term be better to build a new hall on the site.

    The information gathered for this book has been gleaned from records of the Institute’s monthly meetings and other archived material. Unfortunately, records for 1919 – 1926 and 1932 – 1939 are lost. Entries in italics are taken directly from original records. 2 Institute centennial plaque Installed in Village Hall, 10th January 2019 3 4 BACKGROUND In 1919 Mrs Seymour of Barwick House was invited to Sandringham to learn about the new organisation, The Women’s Institute. On her return she founded Barwick and Stanhoe WI which was one of 24 Institutes brought into being under the umbrella of a Norfolk Federation, also established in that year. It would appear until 1930 the original name of the Institute was retained. In records of 6th March of that year first mention is made of “members of Stanhoe and Barwick”. An exact date for the official change of name does not appear in the available records. Our Institute is one of only 6 remaining from the original 24. At the outset 10 monthly meetings were held each year with August and September, the harvest months, being omitted. September was included in the programme in 1949. Although an August meeting was held occasionally until 1949 it wasn’t until 1989 it became a permanent fixture in the 5 calendar. At first August became the garden meeting but later it was decided to revert to July for this more casual gathering. The garden meeting was held initially at Barwick House, later other members offered their gardens as a venue. In 1989 a meeting day of Thursday was decided upon and remains so today.
