    AN INDEX to M. Janet Becker, Blythburgh. An Essay on the Village and the Church. (Halesworth, 1935) Alan Mackley Blythburgh 2020 AN INDEX to M. Janet Becker, Blythburgh. An Essay on the Village and the Church. (Halesworth, 1935) INTRODUCTION Margaret Janet Becker (1904-1953) was the daughter of Harry Becker, painter of the farming community and resident in the Blythburgh area from 1915 to his death in 1928, and his artist wife Georgina who taught drawing at St Felix school, Southwold, from 1916 to 1923. Janet appears to have attended St Felix school for a while and was also taught in London, thanks to a generous godmother. A note-book she started at the age of 19 records her then as a London University student. It was in London, during a visit to Southwark Cathedral, that the sight of a recently- cleaned monument inspired a life-long interest in the subject. Through a friend’s introduction she was able to train under Professor Ernest Tristram of the Royal College of Art, a pioneer in the conservation of medieval wall paintings. Janet developed a career as cleaner and renovator of church monuments which took her widely across England and Scotland. She claimed to have washed the faces of many kings, aristocrats and gentlemen. After her father’s death Janet lived with her mother at The Old Vicarage, Wangford. Janet became a respected Suffolk historian. Her wide historical and conservation interests are demonstrated by membership of the St Edmundsbury and Ipswich Diocesan Advisory Committee on the Care of Churches, and she was a Council member of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History.

  • Halesworth Area History Notes
    Halesworth Area History Notes I. HALESWORTH IN THE 11 th CENTURY Modern Halesworth was founded during the Middle Saxon period (650AD=850AD), and probably situated on the side of a ridge of sand and gravel close to the Town River. The evidence we have of early Halesworth includes a row of large post-holes, a burial of possibly a male of middle age radio-carbon dated to 740AD, and a sub-circular pit containing sheep, pig and ox bones. The ox bones show evidence of butchery. Sherds of ‘Ipswich Ware’ pottery found near the post-holes suggest trading links with the large industrial and mercantile settlement of Ipswich. It is now thought likely that ‘Ipswich Ware’ did not find its way to North Suffolk until after about 720AD. Perhaps Halesworth was also a dependent settlement of the Royal Estate at Blythburgh. By the 11 th century the settlement had moved to the top of the ridge east of the church. It’s possible that ‘Halesuworda’ had become a strategic crossing place where the Town River and its marshy flood plain, were narrow enough to be crossed. Perhaps Halesworth was also a tax centre for the payment of geld, as well as a collecting point for produce from the surrounding countryside with craft goods, agricultural produce and food rents moving up and down the river between Halesworth, Blythburgh and the coastal port of Dunwich. At the time of the Norman Conquest ‘Halesuworda’ consisted of a rural estate held by Aelfric, and two smaller manors whose freemen were under the patronage of Ralph the Constable and Edric of Laxfield.

  • Bramfield Suffolk Putting Its Head Above the Parapet Or Standing And
    1 Bramfield, Suffolk, putting its head above the parapet or standing and being counted. First, a little about where Bramfield is and why I have chosen the following three episodes in the very quiet and uneventful history of the parish of St Andrew’s near Halesworth. Bramfield is a small parish about 7 miles inland from the North Sea coast at Dunwich and to the west of the A12. It lies in a valley formed by a tributary of the Blyth, the church standing above the village on a spur of land. St Andrew’s is well known for several outstanding features. It has the only separate round tower in Suffolk as well as probably one of the country’s finest rood screens. This and a 15th century wall painting where a wooden cross was erected, ‘the good rood’, the Coke memorial by Nicholas Stone and the sad ledger slab relating the tragic life of Bridgett Applewhaite bring visitors from far and wide. The church is mentioned in Domesday and was given to Blythburgh Priory by 1160 by the lord of the manor an under tenant of the Earl of Richmond. This is a drawing by Alfred Suckling from his History of Blything Hundred in 1845 and shows the church much as it was (with the exception of the 17th century Town Houses by the tower) in the 14th century. The three episodes take place in the mid sixteenth, seventeenth and twentieth centuries all concerning clergymen who found the people of Bramfield difficult, namely AntonyWilkenson the “popish cuerat”, Bartholomew Allerton, the man from foreign parts and the Rev Cyril Barker, a square peg in a round hole 2 This article is not a condemnation of these clergy for they were all men of their time, but although not part of the secular structure, because of their important and powerful position in the parish or as we would view it, village society, they were (certainly in the first two cases and mistakenly in the third case) the people who most closely touched the lives of ordinary individuals.

  • The Reduced Population and Wealth of Early Fifteenth
    THE REDUCED POPULATION AND WEALTH OF EARLY FIFTEENTH-CENTURY SUFFOLK by DAVID DYMOND, M.A., F.S.A. and ROGER VIRGOE, PH.D., F.R.HIST.S. IN THE SESSION of Parliament which met between 27 January and 25 March 1428, the Council governing England during Henry VI's minority asked for subsidies to pay for the continuing war in France and for the safe-keeping of the sea. In response the Commons made three grants.' The first was of tunnage and poundage for a year; the second a grant of 6s. 8d. per knight' s fee, a traditional and by now obsolescent feudal aid; the third was a novel, if not quite unprecedented, tax levied on parishes and not, like the normal fifteenth and tenth, on townships.' The last of these grants is the most interesting. Payment had to be made by each rural parish which had ten households or more. If the living of the church was assessed for clerical taxes at less than ten marks, householders were to pay half a mark (6s. 8d.); if it was assessed at ten marks or more, they were to pay at the rate of one mark (13s. 4d.) for each ten marks' valuation. In boroughs the householders of each parish were to pay at the rate of 2s. for every £1 in the valuation of the living. Those parishes which contained fewer than ten households were exempt from payment. It is not the purpose of this paper to examine the reasons for this peculiar hybrid tax, which was not repeated.' For the local historian the most interesting information in the returns is the listing of exempt parishes with small populations.

  • Excursions 1995. Report and Notes on Some Findings. 22 April 1995
    EXCURSIONS 1995 Reportandnotesonsomefindings 22 April.SheilaandMichaelGooch,JudithMiddleton-Stewart,RonaldChurchandAlanMacley HalesworthandBlythburgh Halesworth,St Marys Church (by kind permission of Revd Leonard Doolan). Described by Pevsner as 'a large town church, large partly because of its Victorian additions'; excellent example of 'developed' church, but because of those additions and restoration, lacks medieval character. In DomesdayBook,Ulf the priest held forty acres here as manor, but no mention of church. St Mary's set within small churchyard adjacent to market place where market rights granted to Richard d'Argentine, 1227. Earliest work visible today in chancel: four fragments of 12th-century carving, three right hands and one left, all clasping vine tendrils, set into S. wall; discovered buried beneath aisle floor during Victorian restoration. At same time, while moving 15th-century font, foundations of round tower discovered at W. end of nave. Both finds suggest typical N.E. Suffolk (and S.W Norfolk) church with round tower, nave and apsidal chancel c. 1140-50 (see Fig. 106 and Middleton-Stewart 1992, 298-302). N. and S. aisles added early 14th century; present arcades of similar design to neighbouring Westhall, where they can be dated between 1316 and 1342 (Middleton-Stewart 1992, 305-10); Halesworth's reticulated E. window in S. chancel chapel suggests this contemporary with adjacent arcade (B.L. Add. MSS 6, 753, ff. 299-305). Sir John Argentine (d. 1383) left Halesworth Manor to illegitimate son Sir William (d. 1418; his stone, reaved of brass, lies in S. chancel chapel), who inherited despite bitter opposition from Sir John's three legitimate daughters.
