  • 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.

  • South Norfolk Council Electoral Review
    South Norfolk Council Electoral Review Warding Patterns Submission September 2016 1 Contents 1. Foreword 2. Introduction 2. Proposed Warding Arrangements 3. Equality of Representation 4. Community Identities and Interests 5. Convenient and effective local government 6. Conclusion 1. Foreword South Norfolk is earmarked for significant growth. By 2022, the number of electors within parts of our District, including Costessey, Wymondham and Long Stratton will have increased substantially. We have been required, as a result of the present electoral variance within the Old Costessey Ward to undertake a review of the District Ward Boundaries at this stage, even though we recognise that ideally this process would have followed on from a Parish Boundary review. Having sought clarity regarding the criteria employed by the Local Government Boundary Commission to undertake this review, we have felt compelled to employ a strict adherence to the “10% principle” – that no ward should be more or less than 10% from the average and, in practice, as close to the average as possible. We must redraw the lines following the requirements of the Commission, ensuring that a Parish does not sit in two different District Wards, unless it is also warded. However, this has led to a number of dilemmas in fine-tuning our proposals that our communities will rightly highlight to you. Nonetheless, as much as our communities may favour alternative arrangements, we also recognise that just because a Parish or Town lies in a different District Ward, our communities do not necessarily change. Community organisations will still bind them together, based on their commonalities – and in some cases differences.

Correspondence HGV Investigation, results of Survey. Due to public concern Adrian Gunson, County Councillor had a survey taken before Christmas to find out how many HGV were going through the village. The average daily vehicle count was 605 and 561 with only 13 vehicles being of class 6 or above on Mill Road, this is approximately 1% of the total vehicle flow. This low level of recorded HGVs and site visits undertaken it is not felt that a 7.5 Tonne weight restriction would be appropriate at this location. Grit Bins The Clerk had received a list of 6 grit bins in Ashby St Mary. Some double counting had taken place and the Clerk would contact Norfolk County Council with a revised list. Top Priority Salting Routes a map showing top priority gritting routes had now been published and was available on www.norfolk.gov.uk/gritting.
