WHY CHOOSE SILVER & WARD SOLICITORS?

“It’s a recurrent misconception that a larger firm is better.” I am Clare Mayell and I own Silver and Ward Solicitors in Sheringham. I am an extremely competent and experienced solicitor.

As I have worked for 2 larger local firms I know what clients want and expect. My charges are significantly less than other solicitors in North Norfolk or Norwich and I provide 25 years of expertise and exceptional service.

I pride myself in being one of the only solicitors who offers a FREE FIRST APPOINTMENT, so clients can come in and obtain some initial advice and discuss costs and then make an informed decision. At a larger firm you just pay more.

When a client rings or walks through the door they invariably get to speak to me as this personal and direct approach is important to my clients and I. I ensure complete confidentiality is an absolute priority.

I advise new clients to “shop around” as I know that my charges are significantly less than other solicitors but I can offer the same expertise, if not better. I have and can act for clients across Norfolk and the Country as we now have the use of Skype, emails etc. so it enables me to act for clients further afield. The reason that clients, near and far, instruct Silver and Ward is because of my expertise, exceptional service and competitive costs.

“I would say to any potential client with a legal issue or worry to come and meet me face to face for a FREE FIRST APPOINTMENT, as you have nothing to lose but all to gain".

Home visits can easily be arranged.

Please telephone 01263 823465 or email [email protected] to book a free first appointment.

Sheringham FC History Formed in 1897, they joined the North Norfolk & Norwich Junior League, and soon enough a local landowner offered them a ground just off the Holt Road for the bargain rent of just £5 a year. Back then, derby matches against neighbours Cromer often attracted crowds of more than 3,000, with 'football special' trains put on between the two towns. The Club stepped up a level when they were elected to the Norfolk & League in 1921, and a year later they built a new 200-seater stand to host their growing crowds – but Sheringham rarely challenged at the top until the 1950s, when they achieved two third-place finishes, followed by a title win in 1957-58. In 1964 the league restructured as the Anglian Combination, and in 1970 the Shannocks followed their previous year’s runners-up position with top spot in the Premier Division, earning them the Sterry Cup. But all was not well off the pitch at Holt Road – the Council-owned ground was much in demand for housing, and its spectator facilities were beginning to show their age. A deal was done in 1988, and it would be a long eight years playing at the local High School until Sheringham had a home of their own again. Thankfully, when the new Council-built sports ground at Weybourne Road finally opened, the facilities were just what the football club needed – and their fortunes improved on the pitch too. Three consecutive promotions between 2003 and 2005 returned the club to the Premier Division. In 2008 the Shannocks became the first Anglian Combination team to reach the final of the Norfolk Senior Cup in 17 years, thanks to two stoppage-time goals in a dramatic 4-3 semi-final win at Dereham. “After the winner everyone was just running round like headless chickens,” said manager John Kowalyk afterwards. Despite a valiant effort on their big night at Carrow Road, it was opponents Wroxham, two tiers above Sheringham in the pyramid, who prevailed 3-1. But a year later they tasted success again, winning the Sterry Cup for the second time. The club lost their Premier Division status in 2015,however earned promotion back to the Premier Division in 2018. In 2019 the club won its 3rd Sterry Cup title, after an run in the second half of the season where the team only dropped 2 points from January. This is our first season in Eastern Counties football.

Name: Chris Bird - Sponsored by Ladbrook UK Position: Goalkeeper Birdy joined the Shannocks from local rivals, North Walsham 2 seasons ago. With a great ping and superb handling, Birdy has brought quality to the team and also looks immaculate whilst doing it.

Phil Sands - Sponsored by Thaxters Timber Position: Full Back Sandsy has spent time with Hindringham and Aylsham but joined the Shannocks at the start of the 2016 Season. He brings bags of energy and rarely gets beaten defensively. He always finds a way to slither forwards in attacks.

Name: Shane Cox - Sponsored by Funky Mackerel Cafe Position: Defender Coxy came through from the very first crop of Sheringham U18's players. Club legend John 'JK' Kowalyk once predicted that Coxy would be a future captain of the Shannocks, and he was correct. Always gives 100% and consistently shows quality in his game.

Name: Sam Wenham Position: Full Back Sam joined us last season; a skilful fullback who loves to get forward and join the attack. A previous Sterry cup winner with Cromer Town and has Thurlow Nunn experience from his time with Diss Town.

Name: Matt Halliday - Sponsored by Sheringham Putting Green Position: Defender/Midfield Hallers joined from higher league Wroxham FC. Whatever position he plays he shows great composure on the ball and brings a calmness to the team.

Name: Graham Hinton Position - Defender Joined midway through the season from Stalham Town and has an old head on young shoulders. The better looking of the two Hinton brothers!

Name: Connor Green Position: Defender The Former DESA Student has previously played for Dereham Town and more recently Harleston Town. He has impressed in pre season and has bags of potential.

Name: George Abbott - Sponsored by Phasor Electrical Position: Midfield Abbo signed from Fakenham Town and instantly became a hit with the club and supporters. Great on the ball and has the ability to glide past players. Always a huge part of our attacking play.

Name: Dan Crosby - Sponsored by John Kowalyk Position: Midfield Dan is a holding midfielder with a great engine and work rate. Dan had been a target for the Manager for some time. He has Bostick league experience with Norwich United. Sheringham FC Pen Pics

Name: Ben Boyce - Sponsored by David Crosby Position - Attacking midfield Ben is now in his third season at Sheringham and can list several Thurlow Nunn and Bostick League clubs as previous teams. Strong in the tackle with a real bite but also very composed to back it up.

With Dereham in the Bostick League he made 22 appearances scoring 14 goals. Ashley also had a brief spell with Wroxham.
