An area of 450 sq. m. was excavated in advance of redevelopment. Over 100 burials were uncovered belonging to the chapel of St. Edmund de Pountenay, (mid-13th to mid-15th century). The medieval cemetery overlay backyard areas of the Saxon town, and several middle and late Saxon pits, part of an , insubstantial late Saxon cellared building, and a late Saxon timber-lined well were revealed. Material from middle Saxon pits included glass and imported Badorf-type ware. A Merovingian sherd and a bronze linked pin of early 7th-century date were also recovered. Sieving retrieved samples of seeds and fish bones from all periods. (S.A.U.). Ipswich(TM/16784456) 24 St. Helens Street. MS. LS. Limited excavation during redevelopment revealed a late Saxon kiln producing Thetford-type ware. The oven pit, 1.60 x 1.70m, was sub-rectangular, with a single flue and no kiln furniture. The kiln walls survived to a height of 80 cm. Fragments of kiln wall and other debris lay on top of the final load, consisting of over 30 pots. The kiln was cut into a middle Saxon pit, and two Ipswich ware wasters occurred elsewhere on the site. The excavation extends the known area of Saxon kiln activity eastwards beyond the defences of the Saxon town. (K. Wade, S.A.U.). Ipswich (TM/16414380), Vernon Street, Stoke. MS. Md. 2 trial area excavatiOns were carried out on waste ground south of the Orwell. The northern area contained 19th-century features assoc- iated with terraced housing overlying a medieval sand extraction pit. Excavation of the southern area (which continues) revealed a large middle Saxon ditch, 4m. wide and 2m. deep, containing large quantities of Ipswich ware and animal bones. (K. Wade, S.A.U.). Ipswich(TM/15914452), Elm Street. LS. Md. An area of 300 sq. m. and 3 trenches were excavated in advance of redevelopment. The site lay across the supposed line of the medieval town defences. A series of at least 3 phases of Saxo-Norman activity was revealed. The first phase consisted of a north-south ditch, 7m. wide x 2m. deep, interpreted as a late Saxon town defence. The ditch contained human skeletal material in the upper layers, and traces of a revet- ment survived along the inner lip.

We are not part of government or any political party. We are accountable to Parliament through a committee of MPs chaired by the Speaker of the House of Commons. Our main role is to carry out electoral reviews of local authorities throughout England. Electoral review An electoral review examines and proposes new electoral arrangements for a local authority. A local authority’s electoral arrangements decide: How many councillors are needed How many wards or electoral divisions should there be, where are their boundaries and what should they be called How many councillors should represent each ward or division Why East Cambridgeshire? We are conducting an electoral review of East Cambridgeshire District Council following a request by the Council in order to consider a reduction in council size. Our proposals for East Cambridgeshire East Cambridgeshire District Council currently has 39 councillors. Based on the evidence we received during previous phases of the review, we consider that a council size of 28 members – a reduction of 11 – will ensure that the Council can perform its roles and responsibilities effectively.

  • Late Anglo-Saxon Finds from the Site of St Edmund's Abbey R. Gem, L. Keen
    LATE ANGLO-SAXON FINDS FROM THE SITE OF ST EDMUND'S ABBEY by RICHARD GEM, M.A., PH.D., F.S.A. AND LAURENCE KEEN, M.PHIL., F.S.A., F.R.HIST.S. DURING SITE CLEARANCE of the eastern parts of the church of St Edmund's Abbey by the then Ministry of Works, followingtheir acceptance of the site into guardianship in 1955, two groups of important Anglo-Saxon material were found, but have remained unpublished until now. These comprise a series of fragments of moulded stone baluster shafts and a number of polychrome relief tiles. These are illustrated' and discussed here; it is concluded that the baluster shafts belong to around the second quarter of the 11th century or shortly thereafter; and that the tiles belong to the same period or, possibly, to the 10th century. HISTORY OF THE BUILDINGS OF ME LATE ANGLO-SAXON ABBEY The Tenth-Centwy Minster Whatever weight may be attached to the tradition that a minster was found at Boedericeswirdein the 7th century by King Sigberct, there can be little doubt that the ecclesiastical establishment there only rose to importance in the 10th century as a direct result of the translation to the royal vill of the relics of King Edmund (ob. 870);2this translation is recorded as having taken place in the reign of King Aethelstan (924 —39).3 Abbo of Fleury, writing in the late 10th century, saysthat the people of the place constructed a 'very large church of wonderful wooden plankwork' (permaxima miro ligneo tabulatu ecclesia) in which the relics were enshrined.' Nothing further is known about this building apart from this one tantalising reference.

  • Suffolk's Framework for Growth
    Suffolk’s Framework for Growth 1 Foreword Suffolk’s local authorities are working together to address our residents and businesses’ future needs and deliver our growth plans in an inclusive and integrated way. Responding to the Government’s ambitions to increase the nation’s overall prosperity and recognising past growth has not always benefitted all communities equally, our Framework sets out how we will utilise Suffolk’s potential to ensure we plan and achieve the growth that is right for us and our communities. A Framework provides a mechanism to bring together work across teams; including local planning, economic development, skills, and housing; alongside our partners at the University of Suffolk, Suffolk Chamber of Commerce and New Anglia LEP. It sets out how we are working across our administrative boundaries and with our key partners to deliver our physical development (homes, employment sites, public and private buildings) in a way that matches our communities’ aspirations for growth and ensures we can match this with the investment in our infrastructure both now and in the future. The Framework includes links where you can find further, more detailed information. It builds on our conversations with Government, our partners and our communities, which started with our proposals for devolution and have been built on through our responses to both the Industrial Strategy and the Housing White Paper. It will provide the mechanism for monitoring our successes and realigning work that is not achieving the outcomes we anticipate. This Framework has been agreed by all Suffolk Local Authority Leaders and the joint Suffolk Growth Portfolio Holders (GP/H).

  • 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.
