  • John Moss - National Service at Bawdsey 1951
    John Moss - National Service at Bawdsey 1951 When I passed out of my course as a Radar Operator (PPI) and also rose from AC2 to AC1 I was given leave and my posting to Bawdsey, and that resulted in a very wonderful part of my life. When given my posting I asked “where the devil is Bawdsey?” “Oh. Somewhere in Suffolk I think – you’ll find it”. I did. After a short leave I caught the train down through Grantham, Peterborough and Ipswich (changing at all those stations) and came to Felixstowe. I met up with Jim Small from Hull who was also being posted in, and we remained good friends for all the time I spent there. Outside the station we caught a rather old, ramshackle single-decker bus, driven by Albert. Through town, past the Golf Links to Felixstowe Ferry, to cross the River Deben. We then had to walk across the shingle (no jetty in those days) to a motor boat ferry, commanded by Maurice. On the other side there was a jetty. We climbed ashore and walked up to the main gate of RAF Bawdsey. No-one in sight so we carried on walking up the road, over a bridge crossing what was called the ‘River Jordan’, to find the guardroom right in the middle of the station. Strange or what? We were allocated beds in Room 29 of Accommodation Block. This was formerly a Radar Experimental Workshop and still had lino-topped benches down one side of the room. They were eventually removed when more space was needed, for more beds.

  • 1 the England Coast Path River Deben Association Autumn Meeting
    The England Coast Path River Deben Association Autumn Meeting 29th November Speaker: Giles Merritt, Lead Adviser, England Coast Path Delivery (Norfolk and Suffolk Team) Natural England Establishing the England Coast Path The River Deben Association’s Autumn Meeting on 29th November was well attended with over 150 members present. Giles Merritt, Lead Advisor for Natural England Coast path development in Norfolk and Suffolk provided a lively presentation about the England Coast Path with a particular emphasis on Suffolk and the River Deben. Giles has worked on the England Coast Path for several years, most recently in Essex. His talk covered current routes by the Deben and the challenges faced by Natural England in implementing the plans, local progress and the options for the Coast Path between Bawdsey and Felixstowe Ferry. Giles explained that the England Coast Path was supported with extra funding from the Government in 2014 with the target for completion in 2020. The Path has a statutory framework going back as far as 2009. The Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 established a coastal access duty - to create a long-distance walking route around the English coast (the England Coast Path) which should be accessible to the public on foot. Natural England is charged with its delivery and must adhere to the Coastal Access Scheme which ensures that a balance is struck between the interests of those who own the land and the public in having new access rights over the land. It’s a challenging balancing act, factors which must be taken into consideration include: for the public: proximity of trail to the sea, views, safety and continuity of the path for private interests: operational needs, income, privacy and change of use.

  • From Source to the Sea Life on the Deben, a Book by Woodbridge Residents Nick Cottam and Tim Curtis, Goes with the Flow of a River Steeped in History
    From source to the sea Life on the Deben, a book by Woodbridge residents Nick Cottam and Tim Curtis, goes with the flow of a river steeped in history Words: Nick Cottam Photos: Tim Curtis CPD-Lab/ Getty Images/iStockphoto 44 Suffolk: May 2020 life on the deben t’s hard to imagine the pretty village of Cretingham falling victim to a Viking invasion. I This is Suffolk heartland but the colourful, mosaic village sign shows a Viking ship under sail. Standing by the sign, in front of The Bell public house, there’s no evidence that any kind of ship could have got this far. Here we are along the upper reaches of the Deben, where the river is no more than a stream skirting the north of the village, on its 25-mile journey from its source at nearby Debenham to the powerful North Sea. But this is no single spring-fed river. Rather, it’s an accumulation of downward flows – numerous streams and ditches, gulleys and culverts – around the land above Debenham. “The Deben is a bit like a tree trunk,” says local resident Joan Freeman, “with its upper boughs and branches radiating out (and up) from Debenham.” Walk towards the secluded churchyard of Our Lady of Grace, Aspall, and you cross a pretty, half-hidden bridge. There’s the river again along Derrybrook, with a secretive wave flowing south and away from the village. Watery Debenham, at least Left: of Roman and Saxon times The Deben offers nothing when it rains and the Deben Abstract hand- to the present day.

    www.gov.uk/englandcoastpath England Coast Path Stretch: Felixstowe Ferry to Bawdsey Report FFB 5: Ferry Cliff to Ramsholt Part 5.1: Introduction Start Point: Ferry Cliff (grid reference: TM2776 4852) End Point: Ramsholt (grid reference: TM3088 4141) Relevant Maps: FFB 5a to FFB 5e 5.1.1 This is one of a series of linked but legally separate reports published by Natural England under section 51 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, which make proposals to the Secretary of State for improved public access along and to this stretch of coast between Felixstowe Ferry and Bawdsey. 5.1.2 This report covers length FFB 5 of the stretch, which is the coast between Ferry Cliff and Ramsholt. It makes free-standing statutory proposals for this part of the stretch, and seeks approval for them by the Secretary of State in their own right under section 52 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. 5.1.3 The report explains how we propose to implement the England Coast Path (“the trail”) on this part of the stretch, and details the likely consequences in terms of the wider ‘Coastal Margin’ that will be created if our proposals are approved by the Secretary of State. Our report also sets out: any proposals we think are necessary for restricting or excluding coastal access rights to address particular issues, in line with the powers in the legislation; and any proposed powers for the trail to be capable of being relocated on particular sections (“roll- back”), if this proves necessary in the future because of coastal change.
