The Settlement of East and West Flegg in Norfolk from the 5Th to 11Th Centuries
TITLE OF THESIS The settlement of East and West Flegg in Norfolk from the 5th to 11th centuries By [Simon Wilson] Canterbury Christ Church University Thesis submitted For the Degree of Masters of Philosophy Year 2018 ABSTRACT The thesis explores the –by and English place names on Flegg and considers four key themes. The first examines the potential ethnicity of the –bys and concludes the names carried a distinct Norse linguistic origin. Moreover, it is acknowledged that they emerged within an environment where a significant Scandinavian population was present. It is also proposed that the cluster of –by names, which incorporated personal name specifics, most likely emerged following a planned colonisation of the area, which resulted in the takeover of existing English settlements. The second theme explores the origins of the –by and English settlements and concludes that they derived from the operations of a Middle Saxon productive site of Caister. The complex tenurial patterns found between the various settlements suggest that the area was a self sufficient economic entity. Moreover, it is argued that royal and ecclesiastical centres most likely played a limited role in the establishment of these settlements. The third element of the thesis considers the archaeological evidence at the –by and English settlements and concludes that a degree of cultural assimilation occurred. However, the presence of specific Scandinavian metal work finds suggests that a distinct Scandinavian culture may have survived on Flegg. The final theme considers the economic information recorded within the folios of Little Domesday Book. It is argued that both the –by and English communities enjoyed equal economic status on the island and operated a diverse economy. -

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. -

VoiceVol 17-03 Delivered MONTHLY FREE or find us at www.beltonandbrowston.com NEW BUS SERVICE FROM BELTON TO NORWICH From May 29th 2016, a new half hourly bus service, the First Eastern Counties X11 will run from Belton to Norwich via the new bypass to the James Paget Hospital, Gorleston, Great Yarmouth and then to Norwich. This will replace the No 7 on Mondays to Saturdays during the day. The existing No 7 will run during evenings and Sundays. We understand that the first X11 buses to Norwich will leave Belton Bracon Road (Mon-Fri) via James Paget Hospital at 0706,0736,0752,0812,0852,0927,0957 then at 27 and 57 minutes past the hour until 1627. After this X11 will run at 1657,1722,1752,1822 and 1852 to Great Yarmouth only. Service 7 takes over at 1922,2022, and 2152 via the current route to Great Yarmouth. The time table will be available on line from the First Eastern Counties website. While the connection to Norwich is welcome, this change has an adverse effect for patients from Belton attending the doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries in Bradwell. Tony Grice from the East Norfolk Transport Users Association (ENTUA) said that the loss of the Number 7 route came as a shock to ENTUA as in their discussions with First last year, they were hopeful of a service that would link Belton, Bradwell and Burgh Castle to the James Paget Hospital. -
