As churchwarden I am aware that Kenninghall is slightly unusual in that the Dean and Chapter of Norwich Cathedral are responsible for most of the cost of any repairs to the chancel with Kenninghall Parochial Church Council (PCC) paying the rest. The mortgage company were sceptical of my news so I contacted the Diocese of Norwich who were happy to provide me with written proof of the situation which is Dean and Chapter 97.99%, PCC 2.01%. This means that no property in Kenninghall will ever be liable for chancel repairs, so please don't waste your money on unnecessary insurance policies! I realise that the Newsletter is not necessarily the best place to advertise this, as if you are reading this you are already a resident. However, it may be of some help to somebody!

If you have not already done so, please consider a Standing Order as it makes it much easier for the collector and you. Good luck for 2016! Dog Poo!! It has come to the notice of the volunteers who check and tidy the Playing Field that someone has been placing bags of dog poo in the bushes round the edge of the field. This is a disgusting thing to do, especially in an area where children play. There is no excuse, a poo bin is available at the road entrance to the car park or it can be taken home and placed in your own green bin. How difficult can it be? If this continues we may have to look at banning dogs from the field altogether - so if you spot someone doing this remind them of that possibility. Please remember to keep your dog on a lead on the field and keep them away from the children’s play area.

  • Descendants of William Falke
    Descendants of William Falke Generation 1 1 1. WILLIAM FALKE was born about 1390 in Pr. Worlingham, Suffolk, England. He died between 20 Feb-05 Mar 1455 in Great Worlingham, Suffolk, England. He married AGNES. Notes for William Falke: William Falke of Worlingham, Suffolk, England is the first known ancestor of the line leading to the Fauxes who are found in large numbers in the area between Thetford and Norwich in Norfolk County from the mid 1500s. It is probably unproductive to speculate about earlier generations. The most that can be said is that it is probable that the family originated in the area and simply disappears into the mists of Medieval time. It is tempting to seek continuity back to Norman times. The first recorded instance of the name Falc or variant is in the "Ship Lists" of the Conquest in 1066. Here one finds, in the Wace contemporary list, "e cil qui est siree d'Alnou". This village is Al(u)nou - le - Faucon, on the Orne River south of Caen near Argentan. The first recorded Seigneur here is "Fulk I d'Aunou" (see Elizabeth Van Houts, 'Wace as Historian', in "The History of the Norman People", Glyn S. Burgess (Ed.), 2004, Boydell Press, Woodbridge, Suffolk, p.L). The Domesday Book of 1086 lists only one Falc, an under tennant at Bradford, Suffolk - although there are more individuals with the name Fulk (Falk and Fulk and their derivatives Falkes and Folkes are frequently used for the same individual). The British Archives site also shows 13th Century examples where the name is for example Robert Le Falke (1284), and others where Henry Faulkes is also known as Henry fliius Falcasiis, and Henry FitzFalk (1307).

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

    Snetterton Renewable Energy Plant Community Newsletter - Summer 2016 BEAL BWSC East Anglia Ltd Snetterton Renewable Energy Plant Community Newsletter - Summer 2016 Welcome to the second of our community newsletters for the Snetterton Renewable Energy Plant. Whilst we are constructing the energy plant and preparing it for operation, we want to keep you up to date with all our activities and provide information on some of the questions you and other community members are asking. There are around 60 biomass energy plants like ours, operating, under construction or being developed across the UK; all using a variety of different biomass’ to generate electricity. All these biomass energy plants have been established for the same reason - to protect the environment by generating clean and safe forms of power from renewable sources which will never run out. Renewable energy, including biomass energy, produces little or no waste products such as carbon dioxide or other chemical pollutants, so it has minimal impact on the environment. We are anticipating our renewable energy plant will be ready to generate power in March 2017 and will generate just over 44MW of green electricity by burning straw, which is enough to supply 82,000 homes and save 300,000 tons of CO2 every year. Project Timeline* 2015 2016 2017 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 * Tentative/Indicative project timeline for information purposes only – subject to change. Who are we? The project was originally developed by Iceni and We know we are still quite new in your community so ECO2, and we were lucky enough to be able to buy would like to introduce ourselves.
