  • Little Japan and Barber’S Point Through the Trees
    Heritage, Heath & Hedgerow Historic nature walks with Aldeburgh Museum The Sailor’s Path is a well-worn route, initially used by seafarers, smugglers and fisherman. The full 6 mile route runs from Aldeburgh to Snape and offers a fascinating view of the picturesque River Alde. This walk, at 2.5 miles, offers an introduction to the route. This walk starts in the car park at the Aldeburgh end of the Sailor’s path. The route is well signposted. The patch of land behind the signpost, was used by the Royal Flying Corps in World War 1. They created a small single track railway to transport goods from their airbase at Hazlewood Hall across this patch of land to the Brick Dock jetty on the river. Notice the creeping buttercup along the edge of the path. Arriving at the open field to the left is a good viewpoint to see Yarn Hill which is other side of the river. It is said that St Botolph (Anglo-Saxon Saint of Travellers) wanted to build Iken church here but found it full of eerie and ghostly happenings and changed the church location to where it is today. Splendid yellow gorse in full flower is evident along the path and throughout the Suffolk coast. Less commonly named Furze or Whin, it has an almond/coconut like scent and is very prickly! It is an important nectar source for bees in Spring when few flowers have bloomed. The sad, dead trees to the left of the path before Marsh Cottage are evidence of the breach in the river wall and consequently the flooding of the Hazlewood marshes in 2013.

  • 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.

  • Regulated Tidal Exchange: an Inter-Tidal Habitat Creation Technique Introduction
    This document is a reproduction of the original report published by the Environment Agency in 2003. The Environment Agency is the leading public body protecting and improving the environment in England and Wales. It’s our job to make sure that air, land and water are looked after by everyone on today’s society, so that tomorrow’s generations inherit a cleaner, healthier world. Our work includes tackling flooding and pollution incidents, reducing industry’s impacts on the environment, cleaning up rivers, coastal waters and contaminated land, and improving wildlife habitats. The RSPB works for a healthy environment rich in birds and wildlife. It depends on the support and generosity of others to make a difference. It works with others with bird and habitat conservation organisations in a global partnership called BirdLife International. The RSPB is deeply concerned by the ongoing losses of saltmarsh and mudflats and the implications this has for wildlife. As a result the Society is actively seeking opportunities to restore intertidal habitats. This publication summarises the work of Haycock Associates under contract to the Environment Agency and RSPB.

Cllrs Steve Gallant and Craig Rivett, East Suffolk Council We the undersigned, as rural business owners, farmers and landowners in Suffolk, write to express our opposition to EDF’s plans to build two new nuclear reactors at Sizewell. The threat of Sizewell C has been hanging over the heads of many of our number for at least eight years now with no immediate end in sight. This would be tolerable if the Sizewell C project was for the “greater good” but we have concluded that it is not necessary to meet the UK’s commitment to net zero, and would be a slow, risky and expensive waste of taxpayers’ money that removes opportunities to make use of alternative, green, deliverable and cost-effective energy solutions.
