    for Issue Feb 2019 Connecting Communities ince becoming leader of Suffolk County Council, I have continued to keep broadband at the top of my agenda. I am pleased to tell you that the Better Broadband for Suffolk program has Sreached a new milestone, 93% of homes and businesses across Suffolk can now upgrade to a Superfast Broadband service. This is fantastic news and means an overwhelming majority of residents, businesses and organisations can now enjoy the benefits of faster and more reliable internet speeds. But as a resident and a councillor of a rural ward where some premises still do not enjoy these benefits, I know we have further to go. We already have a contract in place for Openreach to extend fibre broadband coverage to 98% of all Suffolk premises by 2020. But even beyond this, we are committed to reaching 100% Superfast Broadband coverage in Suffolk as quickly as possible. So, if you haven’t already done so, check if Superfast Broadband is available where you live by following the simple steps below, but don’t forget, even if broadband is available, you will need to upgrade your connection to enjoy the benefits of the higher speeds. I look forward to updating you on our future progress. Cllr. Matthew Hicks Leader of Suffolk County Council and Cabinet Member for Economic Development and Infrastructure Here are three simple steps to upgrade Step 1 Finding out whether Better Broadband is available to your postcode Visit our website at www.betterbroadbandsuffolk.com/upgrade-now. Just having the ability to connect doesn’t mean you automatically have Superfast Broadband.

  • Yaxley Hall. Its Owners and Occupiers. Part I E. Farrer
    ( 5suffolkOni5fituteofAt chreolon and (*Murat *Wort. YAXLEY HALL. ITS OWNERSANDOCCUPIERS. PART I. THE YAXLEYS,1450-1737. In the parish of Yaxley, near Eye, in Suffolk,there are still in existence two fairly extensive manors, and there was—indeed there may be now— the smalhem- nant of a third which is held under the Honor of Eye. First of all there is the main manor, dealt with by Dr. Copinger in his " Manors of Suffolk," III., 348, as • " The Manor of Yaxley." This was at a very-early date a portion of some property which had been vested in the Priory of Hoxne, and according to the Gilling- water MSS," WilliamCastleton, Prior ofthe monastery at Norwich sold to Sir Richard Gresham, Kt., the Priory or Cellat Hoxne, the Manor of Yaxley Hall, and all the revenues belongingthereto," recorded by Blome- field in his " History ,of Norfolk," thus, " William Castleton, Prior of Norwich, on April 1st, 1538, fore- seeing the Reformation alienated from the Church the cell at Hoxne, and Manor of Yaxley to Sir Richard Gresham Kt., for which he had absolution." I do not think this could possibly be intended for the Yaxley Hall of to-day, besides which there is a site called " Yaxley Manor House," and is so printed in Gothic letters on the Ordnance map. It almost joins the 2 YAXLEY HALL. I 'I, • boundary line between that parish and Mellis. This is now part of the Brome Hall Estate According to the IpswichJournal, 17th July, 1813,there was to be sold at the Angel Inn, Norwich, " the Manor of Yaxley, in the county of Suffolk, comprising 1210 acres of land, etc." Whether or no it then became the property of the Kerrisons I do not know ; anyhow, I do not think it ever was in the possession of the family of Yaxley, or was connected with the Yaxley Hall of to-day.

  • Lost Features of an Ancient Landscape Robert Steerwood
    48 1 LOST FEATURES OF AN ANCIENT LANDSCAPE byROBERTSTEERWOOD THE MID-COASTAL AREA of east Suffolk, incorporating the Blything and Plomesgate Hundreds, is particularly rich in place-names of the early medieval period. The settlements of Aldringham, Knodishall and Friston are but a few of the recognised sites possessing Old English nomenclature. Many lesser known examples remain buried in texts, field names, maps and perambulations, as these gradually emerge they serve to offer a fuller understanding of the social and cultural significance of an ancient landscape. Polsborough Gate The name Tolsborough Gate' appears four times in "Cross Roads" itineraries recorded by john Kirby in 1735 (Suffolk Traveller, p 30, 35, 36). From Blithburgh to Melton lrn. 4 1/2 f. the right goes to Knodishall, the left to Aldeburgh, leaving a Windmill a little on the right, At 2m. 3 1/2 f. the right goes to Saxmundham, the left to Aldeburgh.

AND DERBY 1908 {All Kifkts Rtterifed] DEDICATED TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE Sir William Brampton Gurdon K.C.M.G., M.P., L.L. PREFACE SUFFOLK has not yet found an historian. Gage published the only complete history of a Sufifolk Hundred; Suckling's useful volumes lack completeness. There are several manuscript collections towards a History of Suffolk—the labours of Davy, Jermyn, and others. Local historians find these compilations extremely useful ; and, therefore, owing to the mass of material which they contain, all other sources of information are neglected. The Records of Suffolk, by Dr. W. A. Copinger shews what remains to be done.
