  • Benefice Profile 2019
    The Benefice of Walton and Trimley Benefice Profile 2019 Welcome and Introduction Welcome to the Benefice of Walton and Trimley and our profile. The Benefice is situated near the end of a peninsula bordered by the river Deben to the north, the river Orwell to the south and the North Sea to the east. Walton originally spanned a large area adjacent to a small fishing hamlet known as Felixstowe, with the Trimleys being slightly further inland. Today Walton and Trimley are considered to be on the outskirts of the town of Felixstowe. The Benefice was formed in 2014 from the parishes of St Mary’s Walton and St Martin’s and St Mary’s Trimley. Each church is happy and active but with its own identity. Both churches are central parts of the community around them and have church families with a heart and a desire for bringing Jesus to the people of their parish and sharing His love for them. The two parishes work closely together, they have equal and separate PCCs but do come together as a Benefice PCC three times a year. Each PCC contributes towards the Parish Share so that as a Benefice this is paid in full. The Benefice churches belong to and support Churches Together in Felixstowe which links the Christian witness in the town and provides joint ventures in which many members of the church families participate. These includes events during Unity Week, a procession of witness from St Mary’s church to the town centre on Good Friday where a united service is held and a ‘Son Rise’ service on Easter Sunday morning at the beach.

  • The Mattin Family of Campsea Ashe
    The Mattin Family of Campsea Ashe Research by Sheila Holmes July 2014 © Sheila Holmes Mattin Family The Mattin families lived in Campsea Ashe from at least 1803 until the early part of the 20th century. Thomas Mattin and his wife Elizabeth nee Curtis, lived in the neighbouring village of Hacheston. Their son Thomas, married a girl from Campsea Ashe, where they settled for the rest of their married lives. They brought up their children and some of whom continued to live in the village. The Mattin family, were connected to several other Campsea Ashe families through marriage, such as the Youngmans , Mays, Lings, Curtis’s, Townrows and Knights. It is possible that one branch of the family lived in Little Glemham but so far no definite connection has been found, In 1881, there were there were 6 Mattin families living in the village at same time. Connection with the Youngman family. John Youngman, born 15th December 1791 and died on 15th March 1874, Campsea Ashe, married Elizabeth Ling on 25th May 1813. Their daughter, Charlotte, born 1817, married Charles Mattin,. Charles and Charlotte had a son, Charles, born 1839. Young Charles Mattin lived with his grand parents, John and Elizabeth Youngman from the age of 2 in Campsea Ashe. Charged with Actual Bodily Harm. An entry in the records of the Quarter Sessions at Ipswich on 1st July 1870 states, Charles Mattin and James Mattin, the younger, were charged with causing actual bodily harm, were sentenced to 12 calendar months imprisonment with hard labour. It is not known who these two men were or indeed whether they were members of our Mattin family.

This reflects the strategy of the Plan which looks to create two new Garden Neighbourhoods to the north of Felixstowe and the south of Saxmundham, respond to opportunities presented by transport connections, and sustain and enhance the vitality of the rural parts of the District. 12.2 The areas are considered below in Settlement Hierarchy order, following the section on Neighbourhood Plans, as follows: Neighbourhood Plans Approach to Site Allocations Strategy for Felixstowe Strategy for Communities to the East of Ipswich Strategy for Aldeburgh Strategy for Leiston Strategy for Framlingham Strategy for Saxmundham Strategy for Woodbridge Strategy for the Rural Areas Neighbourhood Plans 12.3 Neighbourhood Plans were introduced through the Localism Act 2011 and enable communities to produce their own policies and to allocate sites for development. It is for Town and Parish Councils to decide whether they wish to produce a Neighbourhood Plan and where they do the District Council has a supporting role in the production of the Plan. Across the District, a number of communities have sought to develop their own plan, with a total of 18 Neighbourhood Plan areas designated (see Table 12.1 and map below).

  • Halesworth Area History Notes
    Halesworth Area History Notes I. HALESWORTH IN THE 11 th CENTURY Modern Halesworth was founded during the Middle Saxon period (650AD=850AD), and probably situated on the side of a ridge of sand and gravel close to the Town River. The evidence we have of early Halesworth includes a row of large post-holes, a burial of possibly a male of middle age radio-carbon dated to 740AD, and a sub-circular pit containing sheep, pig and ox bones. The ox bones show evidence of butchery. Sherds of ‘Ipswich Ware’ pottery found near the post-holes suggest trading links with the large industrial and mercantile settlement of Ipswich. It is now thought likely that ‘Ipswich Ware’ did not find its way to North Suffolk until after about 720AD. Perhaps Halesworth was also a dependent settlement of the Royal Estate at Blythburgh. By the 11 th century the settlement had moved to the top of the ridge east of the church. It’s possible that ‘Halesuworda’ had become a strategic crossing place where the Town River and its marshy flood plain, were narrow enough to be crossed. Perhaps Halesworth was also a tax centre for the payment of geld, as well as a collecting point for produce from the surrounding countryside with craft goods, agricultural produce and food rents moving up and down the river between Halesworth, Blythburgh and the coastal port of Dunwich. At the time of the Norman Conquest ‘Halesuworda’ consisted of a rural estate held by Aelfric, and two smaller manors whose freemen were under the patronage of Ralph the Constable and Edric of Laxfield.
