Clicking on the link above will take you to the quick search facility on the Images of England website. Put brockdish in the box, click search and you can view photos of all the listed buildings in Brockdish. When you’ve had enough of that, you can try another place – very interesting!

If you’re into family history, you may well find the site a useful resource for tracking down dwellings that were inhabited by your ancestors and / or other interesting people, and for adding some flesh to the bones of your data.

Possible loss of Pharmaceutical choice

Some local residents have been in touch with me to bring to my attention the Government’s proposals which could result in the loss of in house pharmaceutical services at Harleston surgeries.  A response to the proposals is needed by the 20th of November.

You can find the details online:
