Shimpling Parish Code: E04009121 Area Summary Shimpling is a village and civil parish in Babergh that sits 7 miles north of Sudbury and around 10 miles south of Bury St Edmunds. The A134 and the larger villages of Long Melford, Glemsford and Lavenham are also nearby. The area has two main settlements with Shimpling in the south and Shimpling Street to the north. The more modern Shimpling Street is where you’ll find the majority of the facilities in the parish. Along the main road is the village hall and the local pub further to the east. Along Halifax Place there is a play park that was opened in 2010. This is one of many references to the Halifax family who were prominent in the village during the 19th century, building several houses and village school (now closed). The grade one listed parish church of St George is in Shimpling itself. The church made international headlines in 2002 as the location of model Claudia Schiffer’s wedding.

Conservation Area Appraisal
conservation area appraisal Hartest NW © Crown Copyright Babergh District Council license no 100023274 2012 Introduction The conservation area in Hartest was originally designated by West Suffolk County Council in 1973, and inherited by Babergh District Council at its inception in 1974. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Hartest under a number of different headings as set out in English Heritage’s new ‘Guidance on Conservation Area Appraisals’ (2006). As such it is a straightforward appraisal of Hartest’s built environment in conservation terms. As a document it is neither prescriptive nor overly descriptive, but more a demonstration of ‘quality of place’, sufficient to inform those considering changes in the area. The photographs and maps are thus intended to contribute as much as the text itself. As the English Heritage guidelines point out, the appraisal is to be read as a general overview, rather than as a comprehensive listing, and the omission of any particular building, feature or space does not imply that it is of no interest in conservation terms. Text, photographs and map overlays by Patrick Taylor, Conservation Architect, Babergh District Council 2012. Hartest NE © Crown Copyright Babergh District Council license no 100023274 2012 Topographical Framework Hartest is a village in west Suffolk about seven miles north-north-west of Sudbury. It is set mainly on the west bank in the valley of a tributary of the River Glem, which flows south from here to join the River Stour, which then continues south- eastwards to Sudbury and its eventual meeting with the sea at Harwich.

Sudbury Registration District
Suffolk Mortlocks The recoverable part of the Suffolk story seems to start early in Tudor times in Haverhill, where it is on an equal footing with the start of Mortlocks in Essex at nearby Birdbrook; some individuals had landholdings in both parishes. These records will be found under Essex, which is the starting point for these trees. However, in 1569 there died Henry, a tenant of Stonehall Court manor, Moulton; but he was succeeded by his daughter and heiress Margaret Pinder, so had no living male issue. One thing that stands out in some of the villages, notably Clare and Shimpling, is how there might be several Mortlock families with children all of an age. It is difficult to imagine today what it must have been like to grow up in a relatively closed community, surrounded not only by siblings but also by close cousins of one’s own age. In Shimpling in 1861 there were three Mortlock families all living next door to each other, others not far off. For the parents one supposes that there was a level of mutual support totally missing today. Besides paternal connections there will also often have been distaff relationships. In the parish registers, besides Mortlock the same names recur and recur. At the humblest level, where perhaps the typical ag. lab. never left his immediate neighbourhood - something borne out by Cobbett - the choice of a mate probably lay exclusively within one’s own village. This implies centuries of in-breeding, suggested by the manner, as remarked before, that the same East Anglian surnames are repeatedly joined to Mortlock, leave alone instances of brothers and sisters marrying sisters- and brothers-in- law.

The Reduced Population and Wealth of Early Fifteenth
THE REDUCED POPULATION AND WEALTH OF EARLY FIFTEENTH-CENTURY SUFFOLK by DAVID DYMOND, M.A., F.S.A. and ROGER VIRGOE, PH.D., F.R.HIST.S. IN THE SESSION of Parliament which met between 27 January and 25 March 1428, the Council governing England during Henry VI's minority asked for subsidies to pay for the continuing war in France and for the safe-keeping of the sea. In response the Commons made three grants.' The first was of tunnage and poundage for a year; the second a grant of 6s. 8d. per knight' s fee, a traditional and by now obsolescent feudal aid; the third was a novel, if not quite unprecedented, tax levied on parishes and not, like the normal fifteenth and tenth, on townships.' The last of these grants is the most interesting. Payment had to be made by each rural parish which had ten households or more. If the living of the church was assessed for clerical taxes at less than ten marks, householders were to pay half a mark (6s. 8d.); if it was assessed at ten marks or more, they were to pay at the rate of one mark (13s. 4d.) for each ten marks' valuation. In boroughs the householders of each parish were to pay at the rate of 2s. for every £1 in the valuation of the living. Those parishes which contained fewer than ten households were exempt from payment. It is not the purpose of this paper to examine the reasons for this peculiar hybrid tax, which was not repeated.' For the local historian the most interesting information in the returns is the listing of exempt parishes with small populations.
