Three millenia in Chilton.


Chilton in 1597, when Elizabeth 1 was on the throne.

 At last week’s meeting of Little Waldingfield History Society, local historian David Burnett spoke to an audience of more than 40 people on the subject ‘Chilton, the first Three Thousand Years.’

I wrote a short comment on this site about the brilliant book that David has written on this subject at the time of its publication in September 2015.  The post can be found HERE

Andy Sheppard has written a detailed review of David’s talk, which was much enjoyed by all who attended.  It can be found on the LWHS tab above.

The next two events of the Society will be at 7.30 in The Parish Room, Little Waldingfield.
.  
On Wednesday 15th March, Geoffrey Robinson will tell the tale of Suffolk Pioneer Henry Adams Cupper, and take his audience on a transatlantic journey into the unknown.
On Wednesday 19th April, Ashley Cooper will tell the group about the myriad connections between Suffolk and India.

Visitors are very welcome to attend.
