The site was located within an area of archaeological potential and was nearby to the site of Greyfriars Friary and to the south, a possible medieval moated site. Archaeological features were found in three of the four trial trenches comprising several post holes, pits, linear features and structural remains. All features were dated by artefact or circumstantial evidence to the post-medieval or modern periods. The evidence from the trial trenching suggested that the site of the proposed housing development area contained little or no significant archaeological remains.

    Suffolk Coastal District Local Plan Core Strategy & Development Management Policies

    Suffolk Coastal... ...where quality of life counts Suffolk Coastal District Local Plan Core Strategy & Development Management Policies Development Plan Document July 2013 Cover IMage CreDIt: - scdc Foreword this document, the Core Strategy of the Suffolk Coastal District Local Plan, is the first and central part of our new Local Plan which will guide development across the District until 2027 and beyond. Suffolk Coastal District is a uniquely attractive place to live and work, combining a strong economy with a natural and built environment second to none. those advantages however present us with the challenge of so guiding development that we continue to stimulate and support that economy, we provide attractive and affordable homes for current and future generations, and we achieve all that in a way which preserves and enhances that precious, but sometimes vulnerable, environment. the Core Strategy sets out a vision for the District as we go forward over the next 15 years. objectives derived from that vision, and the Strategic Policies designed to achieve those, do so in a way which recognises and builds on the diversity of the different communities which together make our District the wonderful place it is. they reflect both the opportunities and threats which that diversity brings with it. the Development Management Policies then set out in more detail specific approaches for different aspects or types of development to ensure that each contributes in a consistent way to those objectives and strategies. alongside these clear local aspirations, the Strategy has developed, evolved and been refined over a decade to ensure that it meets both its international obligations in terms of areas designated for their high quality nature conservation interest, and the contribution it can make to the wider sub-national and national economy, within continuously evolving national planning policies for our society as a whole.

A year which has seen the curtailment of so many social activities as a consequence of Covid 19. Nevertheless, the Society has tried very hard to cultivate interest in matters historical for members, and we hope you have enjoyed our Newsletter and Updates. Thanks are due to members of the committee for their enthusiasm and endeavours to bring them about and we all hope for the opportunity to meet again soon, in 2021. In the meantime Happy Christmas to everyone and – stay well! With all Good Wishes David Ransom Chairman Taken from an article originally compiled by Joan Flemming and published in the History Society Journal December 1998. FROST ON THE MERE Extracts from the Framlingham Weekly News December & January 1871 December 24th 1870 The late rains have well flooded the Mere, and the frost has covered it with an excellent piece of ice. So sharp was the frost on Wednesday night that the ice was strong enough to enable juveniles to have a treat in sliding. The eclipse of the sun was visible with the naked eye for about a quarter of an our on Thursday noon, when the sun shone from behind the ridge of a cloud. The eclipse was ushed in with a heavy snowstorm which cleared off in time to enable the inhabitants to view the closing part.
