  • The Parishes of Brandeston and Kettleburgh
    BRANDESTON AND KETTLEBURGH PARISH NEWS SEPTEMBER 2011 THE PARISHES OF BRANDESTON AND KETTLEBURGH Dear Friends, One of the abiding memories of August will be the shocking sight of the looting and riots seen on television, and graphically reported in the press. Such scenes seemed to be beyond comprehension, and from peaceful Suffolk almost on another planet. But the reality is that two hours away in parts of London the police for a short time lost control of the streets. It is too easy for the Church to adopt the moral high ground at times like these, but one has to ask whether as a society, we are reaping the harvest of an increasingly secular, and materialistic society. In Marlesford Church, and many others, the Creed and the 10 commandments are framed on either side of the altar table, at the East End of the Church. Countless children who attended Church and Sunday School would have grown up with these reminders of Christian values. They formed the basis of our society. ‘Thou shalt not steal’ is not a negative commandment, but a reminder that with rights come responsibilities. The Church has a vital part to play in building community, and perhaps its teachings will be seen to be as relevant now as they ever were. May God bless you all, Harry Edwards. Rector. 1 Assistant Priest: Reverend Robin Alderson 01728 688255 Mob. 07790 242002 Brandeston Elders: Mrs Mary Baker 685807 Miss Eileen Leach MBE 685298 Churchwardens: Miss Eileen Leach MBE 685298 Mrs Alison Molyneux 685244 Kettleburgh Elders: Mrs Jackie Clark 723623 Mrs Valerie Upson 723078 Churchwardens: Mr John Bater 723532 Mrs Valerie Upson 723078 DIARY FOR SEPTEMBER 2011 Thursday 1st 10.00am Brandeston Coffee Morning, 100+ Club Draw at Village Hall Thursday 1st 7.30pm Film Club “Jean de Florette” at Brandeston Village hall – see below.

  • Records Relating to the 1939 – 1945 War
    Records Relating to the 1939 – 1945 War This is a list of resources in the three branches of the Record Office which relate exclusively to the 1939-1945 War and which were created because of the War. However, virtually every type of organisation was affected in some way by the War so it could also be worthwhile looking at the minute books and correspondence files of local councils, churches, societies and organisations, and also school logbooks. The list is in three sections: Pages 1-10: references in all the archive collections except for the Suffolk Regiment archive. They are arranged by theme, moving broadly from the beginning of the War to its end. Pages 10-12: printed books in the Local Studies collections. Pages 12-21: references in the Suffolk Regiment archive (held in the Bury St Edmunds branch). These are mainly arranged by Battalion.

  • THE PARISHES of BRANDESTON and KETTLEBURGH Dear Friends Although I Depend on the Knowledge and Skill of More Expert Gardeners (A
    THE PARISHES OF BRANDESTON AND KETTLEBURGH Dear Friends Although I depend on the knowledge and skill of more expert gardeners (among whom I include my wife, D) my lack of expertise does not diminish the delight I take in our garden at particular moments in the year. Most of the time we work to keep it tidy, cut the grass, and try to limit the extent of the weeds, and our labours are rewarded to a greater or lesser extent by the comment that “you can see where we’ve been!” Of course, D’s gardening activities are far more effective and significant than mine, and her eye is therefore more discerning. But there are moments in the garden, for me all the more surprising because I do not know whether they happen despite or because of our efforts, when sight, sound and smell combine to give an overwhelming sense of delight. As I write, there is a buddleia not far from our kitchen door that provides just such an irresistible experience. D planted it there a few years ago; in previous years we have dead-headed it, and I have been watching it during the early part of this summer with anticipation. And with good reason, as it has turned out, for its deep purple heads, now at their best, are completely spectacular, the air throughout the garden is heavy with their rich heady scent, and to be close to it is to be overtaken in a different dimension by a vividly and variously coloured halo of butterflies and enveloped in the hum of bees and other busy pollinators hard at work.

  • Suffolk Coastal First Draft Local Plan Summer 2018 Kettleburgh Parish
    Suffolk Coastal First Draft Local Plan Summer 2018 Kettleburgh Parish Council’s Summary of the implications for Kettleburgh (and beyond) Suffolk Coastal First draft Local Plan • Suffolk Coastal District Council (SCDC) has published a First Draft Local Plan for public consultation. The Suffolk Coastal Local Plan is a framework document which will outline how the council sees the district developing over the next couple of decades. This First Draft Local Plan covers the period to 2036 and contains the suggested planning policies, which will be used to determine planning applications in the area in the future. It also sets out the level of growth which needs to be planned for and identifies where that growth could be located and how it should be delivered. • This Draft Local Plan proposes, among other things, changes to the ‘Settlement Hierarchy’ and how Kettleburgh fits into that; the immediate consequence of that change is the proposal to build 16 houses on the north side of The Street. • If this draft plan, as presented, were to become reality then Kettleburgh would undergo significant change in the future. Suffolk Coastal First draft Local Plan Settlement Hierarchy In 2009 SCDC’s Local Development Framework (LDF) established a Settlement Hierarchy as a policy tool for identifying a range of possible spatial development options that would provide for the scales of development required to meet the regional targets for development (particularly housing and employment). The following table was the result of this. Suffolk Coastal First draft Local Plan Current Hierarchy From the LDF Suffolk Coastal First draft Local Plan Other Villages (as Kettleburgh is classed as currently in the LDF) Other Villages are the settlements scattered across the District that do not have any, or have a minimal possession of facilities and services, relying totally on the higher order settlements to meet their day-to-day needs.
