We could not have requested better weather for today's protest. BBC sent a reporter and we will hopefully feature on the local news tonight. Ruth Goodall gave...
I've just read in the Wensum Diary that Parson Tillett will be taking over as Priest in Charge of the churches in our area. The licensing and installation...

I've just found this group and would just like to say hello. I am a member of The Parson Woodforde Society, so my interest in the area is more from a...
Hello Carole and welcome to the group. I have often thought that this area has much of interest both historically and topographically and deserved a place on...
Hello friends. I am delighted to have found this group. I am a descendant of the Parson's Nephew Bill, my mother's maiden name having been Woodforde. The...
I don't know of one but will ask at the Lenwade newsagents when I call in there tomorrow. There is a local newsletter, the "Wensum Diary".The editors and their...
I've only been as a visitor, but can't remember any general guide to the area - it's not really "tourist" country. I know there are some good leaflets for...
Thank you for your replies regarding a local printed guide to the area. I just wondered whether those who have enjoyed the Parson's diaries might like to see...
They are a very good set of portraits - and I'd just like to compliment you on your site. Out of interest, have you got a copy of Nancy Woodforde's PCC will of...
Carole, Thank you. My father asked me to put something on the site about my mum, as there are Woodforde relatives in quite distant lands. I don't personally...
Thanks Stephen. I've enjoyed looking at your site and have a lot more to see yet ( sadly I'm still on dial-up as I understand Morton on the Hill may be beyond...
David. Can I just assure you that I did not join this group in order to publicise my website. I am genuinely interested in, and concerned about, the future of...
Hi Stephen, No assurance necessary. Even if you had joined just to publicise your website I would still be grateful as it expands our knowledge of the family...
Dave, Would you be agreeable to this site being mentioned in the newsletter of the Parson Woodforde Society? There are only 378 of us and I'm not sure what...
Thanks Carole, that's a nice idea. One of the reasons I started the site was so people interested in the area, but living outside of it, could enjoy it through...

The village has several scarecrows on display this weekend. I shall try to get some pictures tomorrow as today we were away. Well worth a look if anyone is in...
Just posted some pictures we took today of the Mawkins at Weston Longville. It was an extremely good display which the pictures hardly do justice to. Liz and...
I have just read this month's Wensum Diary wherein the above event is mentioned. The society will meet for a celebratory dinner at the Duke's Head, Kings Lynn,...
They are really good aren't they? Although I think one or two of them might give you a bit of a shock if you weren't expecting them! regards Carole -- In...
You're right about that, Carole! The one up the ladder cutting the hedge looked most realistic from the rear as I drove through the village and the dark fellow...
Just returned from holiday to find that the proposed road development threatening the countryside around Weston Longville and Morton on the Hill has been...
Does this mean they are shelving plans for the Norwich relief road completely or that they have decided on another route? Carole ... development ... the...
