At last there’s something to put in the diary, yes film nights are back! Starting this month you can enjoy a social evening watching a film. But if you prefer the outdoors why not sign up for the Sponsored Ride & Stride event? A great way to see the countryside and get some exercise too! Let’s hope that more events will follow in the not too distant future. Whatever you decide take care and keep safe. Until the next time ... DATES FOR THE DIARY … 2020 Sept Sat 12th Sponsored Ride & Stride (see advert) Sat 19th Film Night, “The Death of Stalin” Haughley Village Hall, 7.00pm (see advert) Sun 20th Harvest Festival Service, St Mary’s, Wetherden , 11.00am (see advert) Oct Sat 3rd Film Night, “Love Punch”, Haughley Village Hall, 7.00pm (see advert) Nov Sat 7th Film Night, “The Shape of Water” Haughley Village Hall, 7.00pm (see advert) 3 WETHERDEN TOWN LANDS TRUST Wetherden “Pop-Up Market” During lockdown Chantell the Plant Lady started visiting Wetherden with her van and trailer and she now regularly sets up in the area opposite the Maypole, from 9am on the first Saturday of every other month,* having last been here on August 8th. She has been joined by Happy Food Co-op who sell vegetables grown at their smallholding in Captains Lane. This time Heather Sutton also was there with her Jams and Pat Jarrett was selling plants from her garden. Each makes a contribution to Trust Funds or the Open Gardens village initiatives. So, last Saturday in blazing heat, people arrived with their wheelbarrows, shopping bags and car boots to chat, look and buy. It was a pleasant atmosphere in these troubled times – a chance for people to see each other, perhaps for the first time since lockdown began. If you want to come along next time look out for Chantell’s sign at the car park entrance which she places there a few days before. The Trust is thinking about how we might extend this market for Wetherden people to see an increased range of items on sale and to bring their own locally grown or made items for sale – let us have your ideas, or if you want to put up a stall next or any other time let us know. Alex Jarrett Chairman [email protected] * STOP PRESS: I have just been advised, that for the time being Chantell is aiming to come each month, and other stall holders are of course welcome to join in on these days. 4 HAUGHLEY WI Unfortunately Ann & Julie are unable During these challenging times, Haughley WI has taken to hold a Macmillan coffee morning at the difficult decision to Buxhall village hall this year due to the postpone all its meetings until restrictions of Covid-19.

The group had been unable to meet since February although of course had carried on Reading. We were missing the monthly discussion and conversation - always enjoyed by all. Then some bright spark suggested an outdoor meeting and eventually Gallowsfield Wood was decided upon as a suitable venue. We had such a good meeting, socially distanced, sitting on logs around a wood fire, drinking cocoa (not our usual tipple), eating biscuits, discussing books read during lockdown, puzzling over quizzes, putting the world right and so......decided to meet again under the trees in a month's time. The book for discussion then will be The Confession by Jessie Burton..... Our possible next venue, once the nights draw in? ............underneath a lamppost?

Meanwhile, as September is the end of harvest and start of the new farming year, here’s an appropriate BOOK REVIEW. “They Fought in the Fields – The Women’s Land Army” by Nicola Tyrer Although the Women’s Land Army tends to be remembered mainly for its efforts during the Second World War, it did also exist during the Great War, i.e. between 1917 and 1918, nearly two million acres of grassland were ploughed up to grow wheat. However, during the inter-war years of peace, the hungry lessons of WW1 were quickly forgotten. British agriculture at the end of the 1930s was in a sorry state, with the country importing 70% of its food, in stark contrast to the German Reich which by then was producing 80% of its own food. It was only by the spring of 1939 that the British Government decided that something had to be done. So the ‘girls’ of the WLA, many of whom were very young, were recruited from the towns and cities – they were mill girls, machinists, shop assistants, typists, barmaids, milliners and manicurists – and when it came to country life, they were as green as the grass they found there! Their heroic mission was to feed a nation whose menfolk were away fighting for freedom on land, sea and air. Initially their efforts were met with scorn by a community famed for its conservatism; they were teased and humiliated, locked in with dangerous bulls, and subjected to endless sexual innuendo. However, before long the farmers were having to eat their words, and acknowledge that the WLA was a rip-roaring success, although the recruitment posters showed a somewhat “rose-tinted” version of the reality. Some farmers’ wives could prove petty and mean-spirited, sometimes depriving the girls of enough food for their long hours of heavy manual labour - hunger seemed to be a recurring theme for some of the girls, one of whom working in East Anglia recalled that she was not allowed in the farmhouse at all.

  • DISSERTATION-Submission Reformatted
    The Dilemma of Obedience: Persecution, Dissimulation, and Memory in Early Modern England, 1553-1603 By Robert Lee Harkins A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ethan Shagan, Chair Professor Jonathan Sheehan Professor David Bates Fall 2013 © Robert Lee Harkins 2013 All Rights Reserved 1 Abstract The Dilemma of Obedience: Persecution, Dissimulation, and Memory in Early Modern England, 1553-1603 by Robert Lee Harkins Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Ethan Shagan, Chair This study examines the problem of religious and political obedience in early modern England. Drawing upon extensive manuscript research, it focuses on the reign of Mary I (1553-1558), when the official return to Roman Catholicism was accompanied by the prosecution of Protestants for heresy, and the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603), when the state religion again shifted to Protestantism. I argue that the cognitive dissonance created by these seesaw changes of official doctrine necessitated a society in which religious mutability became standard operating procedure. For most early modern men and women it was impossible to navigate between the competing and contradictory dictates of Tudor religion and politics without conforming, dissimulating, or changing important points of conscience and belief. Although early modern theologians and polemicists widely declared religious conformists to be shameless apostates, when we examine specific cases in context it becomes apparent that most individuals found ways to positively rationalize and justify their respective actions. This fraught history continued to have long-term effects on England’s religious, political, and intellectual culture.

  • Mendlesham 2008
    conservation area appraisal © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2006 Introduction The conservation area in Mendlesham was originally designated by East Suffolk County Council in 1972, and inherited by Mid Suffolk District Council at its inception in 1974. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Mendlesham under a number of different headings as set out in English Heritage’s new ‘Guidance on Conservation Area Appraisals’ (2006). As such it is a straightforward appraisal of Mendlesham’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 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 2007. © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2006 Topographical Framework The village of Mendlesham is about five miles north-east of the market town of Stowmarket and about nine miles south of Diss, roughly at the centre of Mid Suffolk District. It sits on slightly higher ground between two tributaries of the River Dove that flows north-eastwards via Eye to join the river Waveney at the Norfolk border.

  • With Its Irregularities of Surface, Caused by the Artificial Mound with Its Encircling .Moat, and the Rectangular Enclosures Similarly Surrounded, Presents
    301 NOTES ON SUFFOLK CASTLES. By. VINCENTB. REDSTONE. I. HAUGHLEY CASTLE ANDITS PARK. The site of Haughley Castle; with its irregularities of surface, caused by the artificial mound with its encircling .moat, and the rectangular enclosures similarly surrounded, presents. to- the mind much foOd for reflection. We are. led to consider, who, or what workmen were engaged in throwing •up this defensive earthwork ; what was the character of the fortress reared upon the mound ; and by what fate it was destroyed. A search among early chronicles throws little light upon the subject, and we are compelled to base our knowledge of its history upon a comparison of the earthworks as they now remain, with those of which we have reliable information as to their construction. A few scanty records bearing on its history, however, remain, and will assist us to form a judgment as to the origin and character of the Castle. The plan of Haughley Castle and its-defences presents a resemblance to that of Eye Castle, which was probably constructed about the same period. Before dwelling upon the history of the owners and occupiers of the site, we will examine the nature of the defences as shown in the recent Ordnance Survey. The most striking feature is die artificial mound with. its level 'summit. The diameter of the inner circle of the enclosing, moat is 70 yards, and if we measure this diameter from the passage over the moat;, proceeding at the same time due north, we shall find the sunimit is not concentric with the moat, for the distance from the entrance to the summit is 261 yards, but only half the distance lies between the northern edge of the summit and the nearest 'part of the moat.

  • Haughley War Memorial
    HAUGHLEY WAR MEMORIAL HAUGHLEY WAR MEMORIAL Suffolk Chronicle & Mercury Friday 12th March 1920 HAUGHLEY WAR MEMORIAL UNVEILED There were impressive scenes on Tuesday afternoon on the occasion of the memorial dedicated to the memory of the twenty-nine men of the parish who laid down their lives for their country in the war. Haughley may justly be proud of the part played by her menfolk during the war, and the record must compare more than favourably with any parish of its size in the country. The price paid was a heavy one and a crowded congregation assembled in the church at the dedication service to do honour to the memory of the fallen heroes. The memorial took the form of a Calvary cross. The cross which had been erected in the churchyard, overlooking the main street, was of Clipsham stone, and of a very beautiful design. A tablet at the base bore the names of the fallen, and many magnificent wreathes had been placed at the foot by relatives and friends. Previous to the unveiling ceremony which was performed by Brigadier-General Massy Lloyd CBE, a very impressive form of service was held in the church, at which the Vicar, the Rev. Hastings Kelk, officiated. The choir had been augmented by that of Stowmarket Parish Church and the choral portion was beautifully augmented. The hymns chosen were ‘Oh valiant heart’and ‘When I survey the wondrous Cross’and the singing of the ‘Requiem’by the massed choirs was particularly inspiring in the solemnity of its rendering. The lesson was read by the Rev.

This core lies in a well wooded hollow at the head of a tributary of the river Dove which flows northwards from the village to eventually join the Waveney north of the town of Eye.
