Footpath to Needham
I think that Brockdish would be improved if it was more connected to Harleston. I know there is a reasonably good bus service (although opinion seems to be that they drive too fast through the village) but I think it would be great if there was a footpath to Needham.
What do you think?

Parr & Lyne
I am a big fan of Parr & Lyne who are Brockdish based creators of fine art sculpture and distinctive kiln formed artistic glass. Their work is amazing. I thought I would alert you to their new website which has come to my attention. It is in the links section on the right of this website or click here.
Time at the bar?
An article in the Guardian recently reported that every week 39 pubs close their doors. Depressingly the article reports there are now more supermarkets then pubs in the UK.
In some communities villagers have even clubbed together to buy shares in their village pubs to stop their closure.
The pubs that do well locally, such as the Half Moon at Rushall, appear to get most of their revenue from food sales.
In our latest poll we are keen to hear if you eat at the Kings Head or if you would do.
