Wasn’t September glorious? Extending the summer with hot, sunny days. Unfortunately, the anticipated return of Film Nights has had to be cancelled for the foreseeable future, due to Covid19. Hopefully it won’t be too long before they return. However, for those of you who enjoy the fresh air and exercise there’s a Sponsored Walk. A great way of meeting new people. What ever you decide to do take care and keep safe. Until the next time ….. DATES FOR THE DIARY … 2020 Oct Sat 3rd Haughley Sponsored Walk, 11..00am (see advert) Dec Sat 5th Haughley Christmas Tree Lights Switch-on (see advert) 3 NEWS FROM YOUR DISTRICT COUNCILLORS Mid Suffolk District Council has undertaken a consultation on housing land supply in the district. It is likely that this will show a supply sufficient for just under 7 years and outstanding permissions for nearly 6,000 housing units. We await to see what the final document says. There are currently two central Government planning consultations running and Mid Suffolk’s response to both will be discussed at the Council meeting of 24th September: ‘Changes to the current planning system’ is on changes to planning policy and regulation including how the housing numbers for each local government area are calculated (which would be upwards for Mid Suffolk). It also recommends changing the threshold of homes built (from 10 to 40) on a development before which affordable homes must be built. The consultation closes on 1st October. ‘Planning for the future’ is a White Paper that proposes major reforms to the planning system. These include reducing the timeframe in which a Local Plan must be created to a maximum of 30 months; and dividing land into zones for development, renewal (brownfield) and protect (green belt, national parks etc) then automatically granting outline planning permissions within the development and renewal zones. Planning Committees at a district council would therefore only consider design and not the principle of development. The White Paper also considers greater digitalisation, a different system for developer levies and a fast-track system for “beautiful buildings”. The consultation closes on 29th October. At a local level, the owner of the former poultry processing site at Haughley Park has gone to appeal over Mid Suffolk’s decision to refuse permission for 120 dwellings, some B1 employment, a community building and open space. The appeal will be heard by public inquiry starting 12th January 2021. Two cases in Haughley are being considered by Enforcement at Mid Suffolk: the land at the old silo site at Haughley Junction, where a new building or extension to the existing is being built; and the land in Haughley Green near the humpback bridge.

[email protected] Councillor Hayley Chairman, on behalf of Haughley Parish Council 7 Explorer scouts is for young people aged 14-18 years (can start at 13½). We offer opportunities: to take part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme (Bronze, Silver or Gold). The Scout Association is the biggest national provider of this scheme. to volunteer with younger scouting sections and/or complete the Young Leader Training Scheme to achieve top scouting awards or just to meet other young people and challenge yourself to achieve something new Shackleton is the local Explorer unit in and around Elmswell, Wetherden and Bacton. We are currently meeting online, usually on Wednesday evenings, while we complete the rigorous risk assessment needed for a return to socially-distanced, face-to-face scouting. After this, we are likely to have a blended programme of online and socially-distanced meetings so that everyone – including anyone shielding or just unsure about meeting face-to-face - can be catered for. Unsurprisingly, this is been a very strange year for scouting. All face-to-face scouting activities in the UK stopped in mid March. For many scout groups across the country, and around the world, virtual scouting became the norm and, while this was initially very challenging, it has also provided some unexpected opportunities. A huge wave of creativity hit the internet in March and, over the summer, scouts, cubs and beavers all over the UK and across the world have taken part in sleep- ins, camp-outs, cook-ins, escape rooms, beat box sessions, fundraising, virtual jamborees, games, campfires, virtual visits to wildlife sanctuaries in Africa, tours of Sikh temples and many other activities.

  • Mendlesham 2008
    conservation area appraisal © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2006 Introduction The conservation area in Mendlesham was originally designated by East Suffolk County Council in 1972, and inherited by Mid Suffolk District Council at its inception in 1974. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Mendlesham under a number of different headings as set out in English Heritage’s new ‘Guidance on Conservation Area Appraisals’ (2006). As such it is a straightforward appraisal of Mendlesham’s built environment in conservation terms. This document is neither prescriptive nor overly descriptive, but more a demonstration of ‘quality of place’, sufficient for the briefing of the Planning Officer when assessing proposed works in the area. The photographs and maps are thus intended to contribute as much as the text itself. As the English Heritage guidelines point out, the appraisal is to be read as a general overview, rather than as a comprehensive listing, and the omission of any particular building, feature or space does not imply that it is of no interest in conservation terms. Text, photographs and map overlays by Patrick Taylor, Conservation Architect, Mid Suffolk District Council 2007. © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2006 Topographical Framework The village of Mendlesham is about five miles north-east of the market town of Stowmarket and about nine miles south of Diss, roughly at the centre of Mid Suffolk District. It sits on slightly higher ground between two tributaries of the River Dove that flows north-eastwards via Eye to join the river Waveney at the Norfolk border.

  • With Its Irregularities of Surface, Caused by the Artificial Mound with Its Encircling .Moat, and the Rectangular Enclosures Similarly Surrounded, Presents
    301 NOTES ON SUFFOLK CASTLES. By. VINCENTB. REDSTONE. I. HAUGHLEY CASTLE ANDITS PARK. The site of Haughley Castle; with its irregularities of surface, caused by the artificial mound with its encircling .moat, and the rectangular enclosures similarly surrounded, presents. to- the mind much foOd for reflection. We are. led to consider, who, or what workmen were engaged in throwing •up this defensive earthwork ; what was the character of the fortress reared upon the mound ; and by what fate it was destroyed. A search among early chronicles throws little light upon the subject, and we are compelled to base our knowledge of its history upon a comparison of the earthworks as they now remain, with those of which we have reliable information as to their construction. A few scanty records bearing on its history, however, remain, and will assist us to form a judgment as to the origin and character of the Castle. The plan of Haughley Castle and its-defences presents a resemblance to that of Eye Castle, which was probably constructed about the same period. Before dwelling upon the history of the owners and occupiers of the site, we will examine the nature of the defences as shown in the recent Ordnance Survey. The most striking feature is die artificial mound with. its level 'summit. The diameter of the inner circle of the enclosing, moat is 70 yards, and if we measure this diameter from the passage over the moat;, proceeding at the same time due north, we shall find the sunimit is not concentric with the moat, for the distance from the entrance to the summit is 261 yards, but only half the distance lies between the northern edge of the summit and the nearest 'part of the moat.

  • Haughley War Memorial
    HAUGHLEY WAR MEMORIAL HAUGHLEY WAR MEMORIAL Suffolk Chronicle & Mercury Friday 12th March 1920 HAUGHLEY WAR MEMORIAL UNVEILED There were impressive scenes on Tuesday afternoon on the occasion of the memorial dedicated to the memory of the twenty-nine men of the parish who laid down their lives for their country in the war. Haughley may justly be proud of the part played by her menfolk during the war, and the record must compare more than favourably with any parish of its size in the country. The price paid was a heavy one and a crowded congregation assembled in the church at the dedication service to do honour to the memory of the fallen heroes. The memorial took the form of a Calvary cross. The cross which had been erected in the churchyard, overlooking the main street, was of Clipsham stone, and of a very beautiful design. A tablet at the base bore the names of the fallen, and many magnificent wreathes had been placed at the foot by relatives and friends. Previous to the unveiling ceremony which was performed by Brigadier-General Massy Lloyd CBE, a very impressive form of service was held in the church, at which the Vicar, the Rev. Hastings Kelk, officiated. The choir had been augmented by that of Stowmarket Parish Church and the choral portion was beautifully augmented. The hymns chosen were ‘Oh valiant heart’and ‘When I survey the wondrous Cross’and the singing of the ‘Requiem’by the massed choirs was particularly inspiring in the solemnity of its rendering. The lesson was read by the Rev.
