    Wrabness Suffolk Coast & Heaths Explorer Guide Wrabness Highlights of Wrabness 1 Stour Wood is part of the RSPB’s Stour Explorer Guide Estuary Reserve and is an ancient woodland. The sweet chestnut trees in the wood have been ‘coppiced’ for many centuries. Coppicing is a way of managing woodland by cutting trees and shrubs almost to ground level to encourage many small stems. This practice is A maintained to manage the woodland today. Other trees in the wood include oak, small-leaved lime and the rare wild service tree. On the woodland floor are many interesting plants, including wood spurge, yellow archangel and bluebells. In early April, the woodland is carpeted with the white flowers of the wood anemone. Stour Wood is home to around 40 species of breeding birds, including treecreeper and wren. In spring and early summer you may even hear the song of the nightingale. In the autumn, redwing and fieldfare visit to feed on berries. Insects thrive here, including butterflies like the white admiral and the Delight in two easy walks.

  • A History of the Three Cups, Harwich, Essex Part Five
    A HISTORY OF THE THREE CUPS, HARWICH, ESSEX PART FIVE – RECENT RESEARCH, ERRATA AND SOURCES This history of the Three Cups, Harwich, Essex has taken more than a year to complete and thus, as the individual parts were published, feedback was received and further discoveries made. In this penultimate Part, I bring together that additional information which, although out of synch with the previous four Parts, is in, more or less, chronological order. James Boswell and Dr. Samuel Johnson In an article titled ‘Dr. Johnson in Essex’ published Essex Countryside magazine in August 1969 writer Molly Tatchell revealed that, early in the morning of 5th August 1763, Dr. Johnson and Boswell left London in a stage-coach bound for Harwich. Boswell (pictured) was setting out on a grand tour of Europe and Dr. Johnson, apparently much to Boswell’s delight, had offered to accompany his young friend to Harwich to see him off on the boat for Holland. They arrived at Harwich the next day and ‘dined at the inn by themselves’, Tatchell stating that the inn was ‘almost certainly the Three Cups’ which was ‘at that time the best known inn in Harwich, and had a large share of the trade of those stopping overnight before embarking for the Continent.’ Boswell apparently remarked that Harwich was ‘so dull a place.’ Activities, Clubs and Auctions During the long period of time the Three Cups served the people of Harwich and visitors to the town it, like many other public houses, was utilised by many different clubs and organisations. As we have seen in earlier Parts, a number of civic functions and special receptions for visiting noble folk were held at the Three Cups as were auctions of property, farm equipment and animals.

  • 1 Finding Wroth's Loughton Hall SUSIE WEST the Open University
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Open Research Online Finding Wroth’s Loughton Hall SUSIE WEST The Open University Lady Mary Sidney Wroth, daughter of Penshurst Place, Kent, made her marital home at Loughton Hall, Essex, and remained there as a widow until her own death in 1651.1 The house was burnt down in 1836, and little is known of its appearance or history. This is a loss in two major respects. Firstly, as the home of a major literary figure whose work draws heavily on her life, we might expect that the home environment she created was both shaped by and informed her evocation of place and space in her work. This is not to suggest that literary work can be read back into the built environment, but Loughton Hall should take its place amongst the houses within the Sidney circle: Penshurst Place, Wilton House and Houghton Conquest House, for example. There is more to say about its landscape setting. Secondly, Wroth had a role in remodeling the old house, and there is a tantalizing but unproven association with Inigo Jones, known to Wroth from the Court. This provides the second theme for this discussion, the Court and the classical tradition in architecture. The early decades of the seventeenth century in England are distinguished by what might be called a ‘classical turn’ in building, in the form of heightened awareness of and interest in the theory and practice of architecture as inherited from Italy and a Roman past.

  • Wrabness Parish Council

McGowan Mrs. J Cole. Mrs. L Byrne. In Attendance : Mrs. C Greenwood (Parish Clerk). 2894: Apologies for absence: None. 2895: Declaration of interests: None 2896: Public forum: Matters raised by residents. (A) Request from a resident - 30 mph stickers . A resident has asked if the Parish Council would consider purchasing 30 mph stickers for the black and brown wheelie bins, the idea being we may get a better price buying in bulk and then selling to residents of Wrabness at cost price. He feels with the black bins out one Thursday followed by the brown bins on the Friday the following week, it could be a good visual reminder to drivers to watch their speed. Parish Council response: Part of parish is in 30mph zone, other homes are in 40mph zone or national limit 60mph. Our Parish is not set up to trade by stocking or selling items. The Village Shop is better placed to stock such items and sell at cost and this idea could be passed on to them. All Agreed this would be a good idea. Mrs. Byrne has offered to look into the costings of the stickers and approach the shop management. Action: Mrs. L Byrne (B ) : i: A few residents with young children have asked about opening of the play park . ii: A resident sent a proposal about opening the play park .

  • Rail Strategy 2006-2011 and Beyond Now We’Removing Informing, Engaging and Inspiring Foreword Essex Rail Strategy – 2006-2011 and Beyond
    Essex Rail Strategy 2006-2011 and Beyond now we’removing informing, engaging and inspiring Foreword Essex Rail Strategy – 2006-2011 and Beyond ‘I cannot think of a higher priority for the County Council than for it to strive to achieve a first class highways and transportation system for all who live in, work in or visit the county of Essex. The challenges in front of us are enormous. Over 130,000 new homes are being proposed for Essex and its borders with surrounding authorities, the travel needs of which will have a direct impact on the transport network in Essex. All aspects of passenger transport will play a key role in delivering this vision. The County Council has therefore produced three daughter strategies to support the Local Transport Plan, focusing on how passenger transport will contribute towards a fully integrated transport network. The Road Passenger Transport, Bus Information and Rail Strategies outline the ways in which we intend to improve the lives of Essex people by addressing traffic growth, road congestion and improving public transport. They contain measures aimed at improving options for travel and access to services to develop a more effective transport network. To produce the strategies the County Council has consulted widely at regional, district and parish level, with key service providers, a wide range of user groups and the general public so that collectively they represent a tangible commitment by Essex County Council to make our County a better place to live and work and to support a decent public transport network. I am committed to delivering a transport system that meets the challenges we face in Essex and look forward to working in partnership with stakeholders to bring about the transformation we now need.’ Councillor Rodney L.
