CHURCHWARDENS Stoke Holy Cross & Dunston We might also notice God himself – or not. I Viv (493438) & Roy (493595) say this because in the story of Good Friday, there are lots of questions about God. Is he Arminghall watching on and allowing people to do this Pat (492622) & Annie (495580) to Jesus? Is he actively causing the death of Caistor St Edmund his Son on the cross? Is he there at all? If he is, Jani (493572) why does Jesus famously call out “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” On ST GEORGE’S HALL Good Friday, everything seems shattered.

  • 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.

    Topcroft | Norfolk SIMPLY SUPERLATIVE With eye-catching good looks, abundant authentic character, stunning interiors, beautiful grounds and a good selection of large outbuildings, this former barn really does have it all. It’s seriously impressive but feels homely and comfortable too – a wonderful place in which to raise a family, entertain friends in style, work from home or run your own business. A real masterpiece, this must be viewed! A stunning converted barn dating from the 18th Century situated in an unspoilt position standing in Gardens of 1.73 Acres overlooking twin Lakes • Five Bedrooms; Three Bath/Shower Rooms • Three Receptions • Wonderful open plan Breakfast Kitchen and Living Areas; Separate Utility • Original character can be found throughout • Extensive range of traditional outbuildings including a barn, a range of stabling with six loose boxes, outside stores, office and tack room ; Sand school • Gardens and grounds extend in all to 1.73 acres • The Accommodation extends to 3176sq.ft • Energy Rating: F Breathtaking Beauty A very happy home to the current owners for over 20 years, this is no ordinary barn conversion. For starters, it dates right back to 1742 and was formerly part of neighbouring Topcroft Hall, yet it’s not listed – you have all the character and charm of a period building, with some glorious period features without the restrictions of the listing. Converted in the early 1990s, it’s been continually updated and improved and today offers superb family friendly accommodation in stunning landscaped gardens. “We’d been looking for over a year when this came on the market,” the owner explains, “It didn’t initially seem right but I happened to drive past one day and knew it was the one, even before seeing the interior! I called my husband and arranged a viewing – fortunately when he saw it he felt the same way.

  • Including Parts of Bixley, Caistor St Edmund and Stoke Holy
    Settlement Name: Poringland, Framingham Earl and Framingham Pigot (including well related parts of Bixley, Caistor St Edmund and Stoke Holy Cross) Settlement Poringland/Framingham Earl is identified as a Key Service Hierarchy: Centre in the Greater Norwich Local Plan. The village has a range of services including a post office, supermarket, other stores, pubs, restaurants/take-aways, two doctors’ surgeries, a dentist, a primary school, a high school, two community halls, as well as recreation facilities at the High School and some local employment. The settlement is well connected to Norwich by bus. Issues to take into account when assessing the potential for future development include the rural nature of large parts of the parishes, with the distinctive setting created by areas of heavily wooded former parkland. The 2012 South Norfolk Place Making Guide suggests that development should not further accentuate the linear settlement pattern. The settlement has a history of surface water and ground water drainage difficulties, and the most vulnerable sites were identified in an Urban Drainage Study. This issue will be a consideration for many sites in Poringland and Framingham Earl, and mitigation will be needed for any development on such sites. Amongst the constraints to further development is the need for a new additional primary school. A Neighbourhood Plan is currently being prepared for Poringland parish and is at an advanced stage. There are no allocations to be carried forward in this key service centre. There are however 536 dwellings with planning permission at the base date of the plan meaning that a substantial amount of land continues to be promoted for development in Poringland/Framingham Earl (including land in adjacent parishes of Bixley, Caistor St Edmund, Framingham Pigot, Framingham Earl, and Stoke Holy Cross).

  • South Norfolk Council Electoral Review
    South Norfolk Council Electoral Review Warding Patterns Submission September 2016 1 Contents 1. Foreword 2. Introduction 2. Proposed Warding Arrangements 3. Equality of Representation 4. Community Identities and Interests 5. Convenient and effective local government 6. Conclusion 1. Foreword South Norfolk is earmarked for significant growth. By 2022, the number of electors within parts of our District, including Costessey, Wymondham and Long Stratton will have increased substantially. We have been required, as a result of the present electoral variance within the Old Costessey Ward to undertake a review of the District Ward Boundaries at this stage, even though we recognise that ideally this process would have followed on from a Parish Boundary review. Having sought clarity regarding the criteria employed by the Local Government Boundary Commission to undertake this review, we have felt compelled to employ a strict adherence to the “10% principle” – that no ward should be more or less than 10% from the average and, in practice, as close to the average as possible. We must redraw the lines following the requirements of the Commission, ensuring that a Parish does not sit in two different District Wards, unless it is also warded. However, this has led to a number of dilemmas in fine-tuning our proposals that our communities will rightly highlight to you. Nonetheless, as much as our communities may favour alternative arrangements, we also recognise that just because a Parish or Town lies in a different District Ward, our communities do not necessarily change. Community organisations will still bind them together, based on their commonalities – and in some cases differences.

For the purpose of this report and ease of presentation we have set out the report based on areas in which the incidents were located.

Mainly these areas are rural settlements that are surrounded by agricultural land, exceptions include New Costessey and Wymondham. Key trends seen throughout the report are: • Properties were sitting along an overland flow path on which rainfall was concentrated • The drainage system near the affected properties was partially or fully obstructed reducing its efficiency • Surface run-off from rainfall made its way on to private tracks/roads/highway and flowed towards the affected properties which sat below these features • Drainage of individual properties was unmaintained and could not cope with the heavy rainfall/ Drainage at individual properties was partially or fully obstructed reducing its efficiency and contributing to the flooding.
