  • The Suffolk Institute of Archaeology
    THE SUFFOLKINSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY: ITS LIFE, TIMESANDMEMBERS by STEVENJ. PLUNKETT The one remains —the many change and pass' (Shelley) 1: ROOTS THE SUFFOLKINSTITUTE of Archaeology and History had its birth 150 years ago, in the spring of 1848, under the title of The Bury and West Suffolk Archaeological Institute. It is among the earliest of the County Societies, preceded only by Northamptonshire and Lincolnshire (1844), Norfolk (1846), and the Cambrian, Bedfordshire, Sussex and Buckinghamshire Societies (1847), and contemporary with those of Lancashire and Cheshire. Others, equally successful, followed, and it is a testimony to the social and intellectual timeliness of these foundations that most still flourish and produce Proceedingsdespite a century and a half of changing approaches to the historical and antiquarian materials for the study of which they were created. The immediate impetus to this movement was the formation in December 1843 of the British ArchaeologicalAssociationfor the Encouragementand Preservationof Researchesinto the Arts ancl Monumentsof theEarly and MiddleAges, which in March 1844 produced the first number of the ArchaeologicalJ ournal.The first published members' list, of 1845, shows the members grouped according to the counties in which they lived, indicating the intention that the Association should gather information from, and disseminate discourses into, the counties through a national forum. The thirty-six founding members from Suffolk form an interesting group from a varied social spectrum, including the collector Edward Acton (Grundisburgh), Francis Capper Brooke (Ufford), John Chevallier Cobbold, Sir Thomas Gery Cullum of Hawstead, David Elisha Davy, William Stevenson Fitch, the Ipswich artists Fred Russel and Wat Hagreen, Professor Henslow, Alfred Suckling, Samuel Tyrnms, John Wodderspoon, the Woodbridge geologist William Whincopp, Richard Almack, and the Revd John Mitford (editor of Gentleman'sMagazine).

  • EXCURSIONS 1989 Reportand Notesonsomefindings
    EXCURSIONS 1989 Reportand notesonsomefindings 15April. Bill SerjeantandJohn Blatchly Stoke-by-NaylandandNayland At Stoke-by-Nayland,Churchof St Mary inspected by members following A.G.M. held there by kind permission of churchwardens, Sir Joshua Rowley, Bt and J.C.G. Rouse, Esq. Bill Serjeant summarised history of church and parish, and gave account of heraldry of church. An ancient site —bequests made by Earl Alfgar and family in 9th century to 'sacred burial ground' of ancestors. Anglo-Saxon charter refers to minster or collegiate church here; no doubt this accounts for unevidenced but persistent assertions of existence of priory. Despite extensive restoration, mid-19th century, and existence of some early features, notably in S. porch and St Edmund chapel in N. aisle, church is 'of a piece' as fine, imposing Perp. church attributed to early 15th century. Elevated position and magnificent 120ft high tower (said by Davy to be visible as far as Harwich) provided inspiration for Constable. Many monuments, and not least heraldry, provide comprehensive evidence of successive principal families —de Tendring in 13th century, Howard (Tendring Hall for a time chief seat of this pre-eminent line), Rivett, Windsor, Williams, Rowley and Mannock. In rich and varied feast of heraldry, great monuments to Lady Ann Windsor (c. 1615) with eleven shields of arms, and to Sir Francis Mannock (c. 1634) with nine, outstanding.
