  • The Brereton Family of Helmingham, Suffolk, England Page 1 of 18
    The Brereton Family of Helmingham, Suffolk, England Page 1 of 18 THE BRERETON FAMILY OF HELMINGHAM, SUFFOLK, ENGLAND Researched & written by Faye Brereton-Goodwin Brereton, Canada ([email protected]) February 2018 Edition The Brereton Family of Helmingham, Suffolk, England Page 2 of 18 Author: Faye Brereton-Goodwin, Ontario, Canada I was born in Canada, daughter of Albert (Bert) Lionel Brereton and Mabel Doak. Dad’s paternal grandparents, James Westropp Brereton and Ursula Harnett (along with four children) arrived in Canada from Listowel, Ireland in 1878 after the Captain had been appointed a Dominion Commissioner of Police by Queen Victoria. Dad’s maternal grand-parents were Dan Martin of Northern Ireland and Julia Crowley identified as of the Province of Munster, Ireland. My mother’s great grandparents, both the Willis and Doak families, also immigrated to Canada from Northern Ireland. So it is little wonder that I went in search of my Irish ancestors. As my great grandfather Captain James W. Brereton kept a diary and there were family tales and newspaper clippings of Brereton and Handford Halls, I became intrigued with my Irish Brereton ancestors at an early age. While all my ancestors were Irish, to date it is the Brereton line that continues to intrigue me. They certainly were a fascinating family who travelled the world, were knighted and held positions of power. Also, as with many Landed Gentry families, their sons went into the clergy (some rising to senior positions), became involved in local politics and certainly there were many in the Military throughout the centuries. So there is lots of interesting reading which is becoming so much more available thanks to the digitization of many library collections.

  • Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance August 2015
    Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance August 2015 Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance 2015 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The landscape of Babergh and Mid Suffolk (South and North Suffolk) is acknowledged as being attractive and an important part of why people choose to live and work here. However current pressures for development in the countryside, and the changing agricultural and recreational practices and pressures, are resulting in changes that in some instances have been damaging to the local character and distinctiveness of the landscape. 1.1.1 Some development is necessary within the countryside, in order to promote a sustainable prosperous and vibrant rural economy. However, such development would be counterproductive if it were to harm the quality of the countryside/landscape it is set within and therefore the quality of life benefits, in terms of health and wellbeing that come from a rural landscape in good condition.1 1.1.2 The Council takes the view that there is a need to safeguard the character of both districts countryside by ensuring new development integrates positively with the existing character. Therefore, a Landscape Guidance has been produced to outline the main elements of the existing character and to outline broad principles that all development in the countryside will be required to follow. 1.1.3 Well designed and appropriately located development in the countryside can capture the benefits of sustainable economic development whilst still retaining and enhancing valuable landscape characteristics, which are so important to Babergh and Mid Suffolk. 1.1.4 The protection and enhancement of both districts landscape is essential not only for the intrinsic aesthetic and historic value that supports tourism and the economy for the area but also to maintain the quality of life for the communities that live in the countryside.

  • Helminghampark- a Complexdevelopment
    38 HELMINGHAMPARK- A COMPLEXDEVELOPMENT bySTEPHENPODD INTRODUCTION THE STUDY OF deer parks in a national context took on a new momentum in the 1970s and 1980s with the publication of books by Cantor, Wiliamson and Bellamy, and Rackham. In more recent years, a more detailed knowledge of the general development of parks in Suffolk has emerged, particularly as a result of the work of Dr Rosemary Hoppitt and Professor Tom Williamson.' Williamson makes the observation that 'It is ... virtually impossible to build up an overall picture of the chronology of park-making from an investigation of individual sites because the history of so many is poorly documented'.2 Nevertheless, the inevitable gaps should not deter us from researching individual parks as far as the evidence will allow In fact, Hoppitt stresses that local research is essential in determining the chronology of Suffolk's medieval parks.' Dr Robert Liddiard has recently observed (also in relation to medieval parks, but his comment is equally applicable to those from the post- medieval period) that 'The origins of the English park ... the different regimes of parkland, the regional character of the park and park development all await further explanation and discussion'.4 This article attempts to add to that discussion by providing a chronology for the evolution of Helmingham Park and a rationale for the changes which took place in the course of its development. Today Helmingham Hall sits resplendent in its 400-acre Grade I listed deer park, and the casual observers who visit the Hall gardens and park on open days could be forgiven for thinking that the scene has always been so.

Welcome by the Chairman of the Parish Council The Chairman welcomed everyone to the meeting and thanked Mrs Bernie Cleland, the headmistress of Helmingham School, for the use of their premises to hold the meeting. He said that the meeting would open with reports from Mrs Cleland for Helmingham School, Councillor Hicks for Suffolk Council and Councillor Passmore for the police and Mid Suffolk District Council. Report from Mrs Bernie Cleland, Headmistress of Helmingham Community Primary School Mrs Cleland provided a written report on school activities and plans, a copy of which can be viewed on the Parish Council website. During the meeting Mrs Cleland highlighted key items from her full report. She said that the school roll would drop again next year with fewer children joining reception than the number of senior pupils leaving. Admissions are decided by Suffolk County Council and the school continues to admit children from outside the catchment area and additional pupils may arrive during the year. The reduced numbers also reduce the school’s budget and the school is again using its financial reserves to support the level of teaching.
