The Six Villages Newsletter THE SIX VILLAGES NEWSLETTE R June 2016 Banham, Old Buckenham, New Buckenham, Quidenham, Eccles & Wilby THE SIX VILLAGES NEWSLETTER A view from the cat world As an unashamed lover of cats I like to ponder on the unwitting aura of wisdom which surrounds them. We as humans are very good at constantly doing but not so good at just being and absorbing. Perhaps we could learn a thing or two from our feline friends. A few quotes for you to ponder on: • Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a purpose. Garrison Keillor • Cats seem to go on the principle that it never does any harm to ask for what you want. Joseph Wood Krutch • In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this. Terry Pratchett • Cats have it all; admiration, endless sleep, and company only when they want it. Rod McKuen • Way down deep, we’re all motivated by the same urges. Cats have the courage to live by them. Jim Davis • A cat has absolute emotional honesty; human beings, for one reason or another, may hide their feelings, but a cat does not. Ernest Hemingway • It always gives me a shiver when I see a cat seeing what I can’t see. Eleanor Farjeon • The ideal of calm exists in a sitting cat. Jules Renard • You can not look at a sleeping cat and feel tense. Jane Pauley • The mathematical probability of a common cat doing exactly as it pleases is the one scientific absolute in the world. Lynn M. Osband • There are people who reshape the world by force or argument, but the cat just lies there, dozing, and the world quietly reshapes itself to suit his comfort and convenience. Allen and Ivy Dodd • Cats always know whether people like or dislike them. They do not always care enough to do anything about it. Winifred Carriere • If there is one spot of sun spilling onto the floor, a cat will find it and soak it up. Joan Asper McIntosh • Cats can be cooperative when something feels good, which, to a cat, is the way everything is supposed to feel as much of the time as possible. Roger Caras I hope you’ve enjoyed these insights. They may make you laugh and I hope will certainly give you food for thought. Wendy Pontin 1 Local Club / Society News Breckland Flower & Garden Club Despite the sun shining brightly outside, May’s meeting was once again full of enthusiastic flower arrangers and friends. The demonstrator for the meeting was Jenni Baker, the title “Whiskers on Kittens”. Jenni told us that she had taken her inspiration from the song “My Favourite Things” because today she would be using her favourite things to create the arrangements. Jenni made six beautiful floral arrangements at the same time sharing witty tales of flower demonstrations and her family. Seven lucky raffle winners took Jenni’s arrangements home. A final mention must go to our Chairperson, Christine Hewson, as sadly her Mother Kitty Patrick passed away this week age 95, a founder member of the Club, and to member Margery Greenwood who’s husband also passed away earlier this month. Our thoughts are with them and their families. The next meeting will be at Old Buckenham Village Hall on June 9th at 2pm There will be a talk on Delphiniums by Howard Norton. The Fower Arranging Competition will be ‘Garden Colour’. All Welcome. Visitors £4 For further details contact Christine 01953 454528 or Sally 01953 788712. y Attleborough & District Horticultural Society At the April meeting of Attleborough Horticultural Society Peter Firman welcomed members and visitors. He then introduced the speaker for the evening Frank Lampbert. Frank has grown fuchsias for over 20 years. There are over 1200 fuchsias registered with as many again that are not. He explained the type of compost which is most suitable for the plants and how to take cuttings, which he takes in October and over winters in the greenhouse. He also spoke about various ways to both prevent diseases with red spider being the worst pest for fuchsias. Frank then showed slides of different types of fuchsias, including many of his award winning plants. He said that plants need to be ‘dressed’ for showing and that could take a least an hour per plant. Peter thanked Frank for a most enjoyable and informative talk. The next meeting is on Wednesday 15th June at 7.30pm in Attleborough Junior School, Besthorpe Road, where the Rose and Sweet Pea Show will take place. Exhibits can be staged from 6.30pm to 7pm. Visitors are very welcome. Bunwell Camera Club We meet at the Tibenham Community Hall on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month at 8pm. Bunwell & District Camera Club is a small friendly club. We welcome new members.

He replaces Labour’s George Nobbs who has been Leader of the Council since May 2013 Heritage Lottery Fund - Norfolk Museums Service has received earmarked funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for the Norwich Castle: Gateway to Medieval England project. An initial development grant of £462,400 will be a major boost to the multi-million pound plan to transform Norwich Castle’s iconic Keep into one of the region’s premier heritage attractions. Introducing the devolution deal - What is the deal? A proposed deal worth more than £1bn has been drawn up between Central Government and 22 councils across Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, and the New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP).If approved, the deal would see more decisions on areas like infrastructure, growth, employment and skills being made locally, rather than by Central Government.

The publication, called Transforming Breckland, was sent to all households in the district at the end of April. Among the content in the spring edition of the publication are three competitions which are being supported by Breckland's partners. These could see you win a family ticket to see the Truck SuperPrix at Snetterton Racetrack, one of 10 free family swim passes and goody bags, or one of 10 family tickets to Gressenhall Museum. Entry to each of the competitions is free - details on how to enter and terms and conditions are in the publication. The publication can also be read at: www.breckland.gov.uk/TransformingBreckland. Breckland currently plans to issue a second edition of the publication towards the end of 2016 to update residents on further progress and changes. The publication will then be reviewed.

Is it up to standard? Would it impress the viewer? Think about it, would you dare let them see in or not? You don’t have to have a show garden, but you should have a garden to show, at least to family and friends, your own tranquil space to relax in and enjoy, that’s tidy and welcoming, a garden to be just a little bit proud of. Whatever state your garden is in, nothing focuses the mind like a deadline, so use your imagination and conjure up a function that will take place in your garden, set a date and tell somebody that on this day your garden will be looking great and you’ll prove it with a photograph or maybe allow them to visit and see for themselves. Begin by looking outside at what you’ve got already and consider what you realistically wish to have. If your garden is established there may not be major changes to be carried out, but improvements can certainly be made, however if all or part of your garden is in need of updating the task may seem a bit daunting - don’t panic, one step at a time! Start with a good all round tidy-up, if it’s stored rubbish get rid of it, remove any dead plant material, cut and edge the grass then sweep paths and patios. Look at shrubs, trees and climbers to decide if any pruning is required (you may have to sacrifice some of this summer’s flowers ), then feed everything. Now it’s time for the exciting stage by making your plan a reality, perhaps creating new borders, adding some height with an ornamental tree or archway, and of course getting creative with some fresh planting! A visit to The Garden Enclosure will provide all you need to transform your garden, from practical necessities such as pots, quality composts, tools and ornaments, to inspiring plants of all kinds, including traditional favourites plus beautiful newcomers, all at excellent prices and if you need some planting suggestions just ask.

  • 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.

  • The House of Industry Gressenhall Norfolk
    House of Industry 2014 The House of Industry Gressenhall Norfolk Fig. 1. Façade. Showing former well house and weather vane to the cupola. Inset - detail of doorway CONSERVATION PLAN 1 House of Industry 2014 4.1 Executive Plan An architecturally magnificent building of 1777 with a continuous written record of life in the workhouse from 1777 until 1948. 4.2 Preamble This report is written by Stephen Heywood MA, FSA, an architectural historian and Historic Buildings Officer for Norfolk County Council. The report relies on the hard work of Stephen Pope on the copious records of the workhouse held by the Norfolk Record Office (NRO) and on the lives of its guardians and inmates. His published booklet on the workhouse is full of original research and a valuable resource (Pope). Also consulted are the authoritative account by Kathryn Morrison entitled The Workhouse: A Study of Poor-Law Buildings in England (Morrison) and the Norfolk Historical Atlas (NHA 2005) with its two chapters on Norfolk Workhouses. This account concentrates on the buildings, which have not been looked at in detail before with architectural history as a prime concern. It is intended that the work will inform exhibition designers as well architects involved with repair and enhancement. Also it is hoped that the report will stimulate activities for visitors and volunteers centred on discovering the building. 4.3 Understanding the Heritage 4.3.1 Describe the Heritage 4.3.1.1 Introduction The House of Industry, as it was originally conceived, was built in order to accommodate the poor of the Hundreds of Mitford and Launditch.

    Breckland Sites Map of proposed sites in Beetley (MIN 08, MIN 12, MIN 13, MIN 51) 105 MIN 12 - land north of Chapel Lane, Beetley Site Characteristics • The 16.38 hectare site is within the parish of Beetley • The estimated sand and gravel resource at the site is 1,175,000 tonnes • The proposer of the site has given a potential start date of 2025 and estimated the extraction rate to be 80,000 tonnes per annum. Based on this information the full mineral resource at the site could be extracted within 15 years, therefore approximately 960,000 tonnes could be extracted within the plan period. • The site is proposed by Middleton Aggregates Ltd as an extension to an existing site. • The site is currently in agricultural use and the Agricultural Land Classification scheme classifies the land as being Grade 3. • The site is 3.7km from Dereham and 12km from Fakenham, which are the nearest towns. A reduced extraction area has been proposed of 14.9 hectares, which creates standoff areas to the south west of the site nearest to the buildings on Chapel Lane, and to the north west of the site nearest the dwellings on Church Lane. M12.1 Amenity: The nearest residential property is 11m from the site boundary. There are 22 sensitive receptors within 250m of the site boundary and six of these are within 100m of the site boundary.
