  • The Brereton Family of Helmingham, Suffolk, England Page 1 of 18
    The Brereton Family of Helmingham, Suffolk, England Page 1 of 18 THE BRERETON FAMILY OF HELMINGHAM, SUFFOLK, ENGLAND Researched & written by Faye Brereton-Goodwin Brereton, Canada ([email protected]) February 2018 Edition The Brereton Family of Helmingham, Suffolk, England Page 2 of 18 Author: Faye Brereton-Goodwin, Ontario, Canada I was born in Canada, daughter of Albert (Bert) Lionel Brereton and Mabel Doak. Dad’s paternal grandparents, James Westropp Brereton and Ursula Harnett (along with four children) arrived in Canada from Listowel, Ireland in 1878 after the Captain had been appointed a Dominion Commissioner of Police by Queen Victoria. Dad’s maternal grand-parents were Dan Martin of Northern Ireland and Julia Crowley identified as of the Province of Munster, Ireland. My mother’s great grandparents, both the Willis and Doak families, also immigrated to Canada from Northern Ireland. So it is little wonder that I went in search of my Irish ancestors. As my great grandfather Captain James W. Brereton kept a diary and there were family tales and newspaper clippings of Brereton and Handford Halls, I became intrigued with my Irish Brereton ancestors at an early age. While all my ancestors were Irish, to date it is the Brereton line that continues to intrigue me. They certainly were a fascinating family who travelled the world, were knighted and held positions of power. Also, as with many Landed Gentry families, their sons went into the clergy (some rising to senior positions), became involved in local politics and certainly there were many in the Military throughout the centuries. So there is lots of interesting reading which is becoming so much more available thanks to the digitization of many library collections.

  • Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance August 2015
    Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance August 2015 Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance 2015 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The landscape of Babergh and Mid Suffolk (South and North Suffolk) is acknowledged as being attractive and an important part of why people choose to live and work here. However current pressures for development in the countryside, and the changing agricultural and recreational practices and pressures, are resulting in changes that in some instances have been damaging to the local character and distinctiveness of the landscape. 1.1.1 Some development is necessary within the countryside, in order to promote a sustainable prosperous and vibrant rural economy. However, such development would be counterproductive if it were to harm the quality of the countryside/landscape it is set within and therefore the quality of life benefits, in terms of health and wellbeing that come from a rural landscape in good condition.1 1.1.2 The Council takes the view that there is a need to safeguard the character of both districts countryside by ensuring new development integrates positively with the existing character. Therefore, a Landscape Guidance has been produced to outline the main elements of the existing character and to outline broad principles that all development in the countryside will be required to follow. 1.1.3 Well designed and appropriately located development in the countryside can capture the benefits of sustainable economic development whilst still retaining and enhancing valuable landscape characteristics, which are so important to Babergh and Mid Suffolk. 1.1.4 The protection and enhancement of both districts landscape is essential not only for the intrinsic aesthetic and historic value that supports tourism and the economy for the area but also to maintain the quality of life for the communities that live in the countryside.

  • Conservation Area Appraisal
    CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL Needham Market NW © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2010 INTRODUCTION The conservation area in Needham Market was designated in 1970 by East Suffolk County Council, and inherited by Mid Suffolk District Council at its inception in 1974. It was last appraised and extended by Mid Suffolk District Council in 2000. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Needham Market 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 Needham Market’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 Town Sign 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 2011. View South-east down High Street Needham Market SE © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2010 TOPOGRAPHICAL FRAMEWORK Needham Market is situated in central Suffolk, eight miles north-west of Ipswich between 20m and 40m above OD.
