But, a good year in our allotment gardens: Each plot taken and productive and we do have people asking to join when a plot becomes vacant. So a small success story in Felsham. I have suggested before that an association of allotment holders could be a possible benefit to gardeners with the sharing of seeds, equipment, manure etc. and sometimes help with difficult tasks. Basically, a communal group helping each other with difficult tasks and jobs which would be a benefit to the group and the wider community. Hedge and footpath maintenance for example. If each allotment holder could email me at: [email protected] I can gauge what interest there is and start the process of inauguration in the New Year. One problem has been reported to the Charity; there have been a couple of occasions where garden rubbish has been dumped on an allotment. This is not acceptable as Mid-Suffolk Council provide a brown bin collection service and green rubbish bags for garden waste. The green bags are on sale in the shop. Brian. For the Felsham Charity. 9 Felsham and Gedding Village News, Issue 202 December 2020 What is Your Village Made of?

The census is a once-in-a-decade survey that gives us the most accurate estimate of all the people and households in England and Wales. It has been carried out every decade since 1801, with the exception of 1941. It will be the first run predominantly online, with households receiving a letter with a unique access code, allowing them to complete the questionnaire on their computers, phones or tablets. “A successful census will ensure everyone from local government to charities can put services and funding in the places where they are most needed,” Iain Bell, deputy national statistician at the Office for National Statistics, said. “This could mean things like doctors’ surgeries, schools and new transport routes. That’s why it is so important everyone takes part and we have made it easier for people to do so online on any device, with help and paper questionnaires for those that need them.” Census day will be on March 21, but households across the country will receive letters with online codes allowing them to take part from early March. The census will include questions about your sex, age, work, health, education, household size and ethnicity. And, for the first time, there will be a question asking people whether they have served in the armed forces, as well as voluntary questions for those aged 16 and over on sexual orientation and gender identity. Results will be available within 12 months, although personal records will be locked away for 100 years, kept safe for future generations.

With the pandemic still very much with us, it’s anybody’s guess what the festive season will bring … not least when it comes to getting together, going away and how we celebrate. Two things are certain before and over Christmas: Most of us will be buying presents and other seasonal goods online, more than ever before. And it will still be a favourite time of year for scammers, who always regard Christmas and Black Friday shoppers as perfect targets for fraud.

  • Felsham Conservation Area Appraisal
    FELSHAM CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL © Crown copyright All Rights Reserved M S D C Licence no 100017810 2010 INTRODUCTION The conservation area in Felsham was originally designated by Mid Suffolk District Council in 1996. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Felsham under a number of different headings as set out in English Heritage’s ‘Guidance on Conservation Area Appraisals’ (2006). As such it is a straightforward appraisal of Felsham’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 Pump Wheel 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 2011. Vintage Transport © Crown copyright All Rights Reserved M S D C Licence no 100017810 2010 TOPOGRAPHICAL FRAMEWORK Felsham is situated in central Suffolk about eight miles south-east of Bury St Edmunds. It lies on the boulder clay of ‘High Suffolk’, a recent glacial deposit over chalk at greater depth. The village lies on gently sloping ground between 75 and 85 metres above OD, very much on a watershed, standing near the beginnings of many local waterways.

    ISSUE 181 February 2019 Well as I write this, on 25 January, it is the changing of the guard at our local shop and Post Office with Jon and Sue working their last shift today. I find it hard to believe that they have been running this vital resource for the village for 17 years now. So it’s a a huge 17 year sized thank you to them both and I am sure everyone will join me in wishing them much happiness for their next adventure. With so many villages losing their local shop and Post Offices lets all be sure to support the new Felsham & Gedding Community Store, whether that’s by being sure to use it, volunteer for a shift, or even invest in it! More details inside. I didn’t get up in the early hours to look for the Wolf Moon this week (just as well at it was cloudy!) but I am planning to see Museum of the Moon installation at The Apex in BSE in February. An enormous Moon has been created using detailed NASA imagery of the lunar surface with an approximate scale of 1:500,000 – each centimetre of the 7 metre spherical sculpture represents 5 kilometres of the moon’s surface! The internally lit installation will give visitors a surreal up-close experience by fusing lunar imagery and moonlight.. Entry is free – for full details visit www.theapex.co.uk What ever you choose to do in February enjoy.
