Memories of Shimpling (Suffolk)

I live in Shimpling in Suffolk near Bury St Edmunds (not Shimpling in Norfolk) and would like to hear from anyone who has memories of the village. I am compiling a catalogue of historic recollections that will disappear if not recorded.

Perhaps you were in the Women's Land Army during or after the last war as there was a training establishment here and someone who helped in training still lives in the village. You may have been a resident of the village or went to school here and can recall a few anecdotes. Maybe you used to call into the village to sell your wares to the villagers or did you make stained glass windows or tapestries. I know
there were people who did.

I would love to hear from you.
