LAND IN THE PARISH OF ALBURGH KNOWN AS HOMERSFIELD PICNIC SITE Alburgh Parish Council is pleased to let everyone know that Norfolk County Council have completed the sale of this land to Alburgh Parish Council. This means that the site will remain open for residents and visitors to have access to the river for fishing, canoeing, walking and enjoying this beautiful location. Alburgh Parish Council’s sole purpose in buying the land is to ensure public access to it. So many people and organisations have contributed to the cost, and we wish to thank you all, especially South Norfolk Council and Dr Murray Gray. Your response was immediate and generous and without you this would not have been possible. It means that this irreplaceable community asset, remains just that – a community asset. The River Waveney Trust volunteers have maintained the area and continue to do so, we are very appreciative and grateful for all their work at the site. Perhaps it is time rename the site as Alburgh Riverside Picnic Site, you can let Alburgh Parish Council know your views. We hope you all continue to enjoy the area as you always have done.

NORFOLK LOCAL ACCESS FORUM SEEKING NEW MEMBERS The Norfolk Local Access Forum is comprised of up to 22 people covering a range of interests in countryside access in Norfolk, including walking; cycling; horse riding; landowners; conservation; other interests (including health, tourism, business, access for all, heritage, education). The Forum provides independent advice to a number of organisations including Norfolk County Council on improving access to land in Norfolk. We are looking for enthusiastic and proactive people with a passion for the outdoors with good communication skills to fill 5 vacancies on the Forum. In particular, we are keen to find new members from the following interest areas: landowners and managers, younger people (or those who can represent young people), equestrians and local business/tourism. Further information and a link to the online recruitment form can be found here: www.norfolk.gov.uk/nlaf. If you have any queries, please email [email protected], phone 0344 800 8020 . The closing date for applications is 31st January 2019. Su Waldron, Project Officer, Community and Environmental Services, tel: 01603 222810, Floor 6 County Hall, Norwich, NR1 2SG SAFER NEIGHBOURHOOD TEAM - BEAT MANAGER PC RICHARDS Since my last update in November, the local issues remain the same. These are still ASB driving, Speeding and Drug Supply. Calls to police about ASB driving are almost non-existent now. I have spoken to seven young drivers who are all known locally to cause issues from time to time. Advice has been passed to them and this seems to have worked. The issue of speeding has also dramatically reduced and again I believe that the proactive enforcement by the Special Constabulary has really helped. I have been working hard to continue building on the current intelligence around drug supply in Harleston and surrounding areas. I have made specific visits to people known to be linked to drugs in the area and this has clearly had an impact. A marked improvement has been shown, by the fact that local residents have personally told me that there is almost no drug activity in those areas as previously reported. I will continue to keep the pressure on. I am also currently investigating a series of recent thefts from motor vehicles. So far, one person has been arrested and interviewed. He remains under investigation as enquiries are ongoing. Two historic thefts from a local shop in Harleston have been detected by myself and the offender has paid compensation to those victims.

All of us should be making sure our medicine cabinets are stocked. It’s also sensible to order any regular medicines you need in good time so you don’t run out, taking care to only order what you need. But if you do feel poorly, seek advice from your local pharmacist before it gets worse. If it’s urgent, then a call to your GP or NHS111 is the next step, and they’ll advise you what to do. Common sickness bugs Suffering from norovirus or other common sickness bugs? Don’t spread it around by visiting your GP or other public places. Stay at home and rest. HomeFirst – your bed is the best bed! None of us want to go into hospital or a care bed, but if we do it’s good to get home if we can. The NHS and social care across all of Norfolk and Waveney are stressing that if someone needs a hospital or temporary care bed they will get one, but our aim is always to help people get back home as soon as possible. This is because older people in particular can lose independence rapidly.

  • 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.

  • Norton Marshes to Haddiscoe Dismantled
    This area inspired the artist Sir J. A. Arnesby 16 Yare Valley - Norton Marshes to Brown (1866-1955) who lived each summer Haddiscoe Dismantled Railway at The White House, Haddiscoe. Herald of the Night, Sir J.A.Arnesby-Brown Why is this area special? This is a vast area of largely drained marshland which lies to the south of the Rivers Yare and Waveney. It traditionally formed part of the parishes of Norton (Subcourse), Thurlton, Thorpe and Haddiscoe along with a detached part of Raveningham. It would have had a direct connection to what is now known as Haddiscoe Island, prior to the construction of the New Cut which connected the Yare and Waveney together to avoid having to travel across Breydon Water. There are few houses within this marshland area. Those that exist are confined to those locations 27 where there were, or are transport links across NORFOLK the rivers. The remainder of the settlements have 30 28 developed in a linear way hugging the edges of the southern river valley side. 22 31 23 29 The Haddiscoe Dam road provides the main 24 26 connection north-south from Haddiscoe village to 25 NORWICH St Olaves. 11 20 Gt YARMOUTH 10 12 19 21 A journey on the train line from Norwich to 14 9 Lowestoft which follows the line of the New Cut 13 15 18 16 and then hugs the northern side of the Waveney 17 Valley provides a glorious way to view this area as 8 7 public rights of way into the middle of the marshes LOWESTOFT 6 4 (other than the fully navigable river) are few and 2 3 1 5 far between.

Introduction 1.1 Lound and Ashby, Herringfleet & Somerleyton are adjoining parishes in the north of Suffolk. The area is rural, with much of the land being used for agriculture. The main settlement areas are the villages of Somerleyton and Lound, with smaller settlements at Herringfleet and Ashby, together with some scattered farmhouses and converted farm buildings or farm workers’ cottages. The two parishes have a combined area of around 2020 hectares, and a total population of around 780 (2011 census). 1.2 Early in 2016 the two parish councils agreed to work together to develop a joint neighbourhood plan. A steering group consisting of residents and Parish Councillors was set up to lead the work. 1.3 One of the initial pieces of work was to agree and gain acceptance from the former Waveney District Council (now East Suffolk Council) and the Broads Authority for the designated Neighbourhood Area.

  • Report to Cabinet
    Environment, Development and Transport Committee Item No. Report title: Highway Parish Partnership Schemes 2018/19 Date of meeting: 16 March 2018 Responsible Chief Tom McCabe – Executive Director, Community Officer: and Environmental Services Strategic impact The Parish Partnership programme delivers small highway improvements which are considered a priority by local communities and support Local Transport Plan (LTP) objectives. It is also covered by a “vital signs” performance indicator. In March 2017, EDT Committee agreed to continue the programme using £300,000 of the highway improvements budget to fund up to 50% of each bid, with consideration of increased contributions for parish councils with incomes below £2,000. Additionally on 19 January 2018 the committee agreed to boost this provisional by £25,000 for the next 4- years utilising some of the additional £20m investment from our members in highways. Executive summary This report sets out the proposed parish partnership programme for 2018/19 following analysis and review of the applications submitted. Recommendations EDT Committee is asked to: 1. Approve all bids listed in Appendix B for inclusion in the Parish Partnership Programme for 2018/19. 1. Background 1.1. The Parish Partnership Scheme began in September 2011, when Parish and Town Councils were invited to submit bids for local highway improvements, with the County Council initially funding up to 50% of bid costs. Funding is therefore targeted to meet needs identified at a local level and helps us to support and promote our role in enabling communities. 1.2. The programme has been well received by Parish/Town Councils and members and feedback has been very positive from communities.
