Memories of Stokesby, the Post Office
I was born in Stokesby in 1946 and was a pupil at the village from 51 thur 58 'ish. Our Head teacher was Sybil Freeman and the Infant teacher was Mrs. Frost/Brown. At the time my nick-name was Pop.

I lived at Riverside (now renamed Bureside) from 1955 - 1961. I went to the village school and clearly remember Miss Freeman. I was baptised at the church, as was my younger brother. My dad was Edward (Teddy) Land who taught in Gorleston - he used to produce posters for village events. My mum was Ethel - she was an active member of the Mother's Union. Does anyone remember them?

My name is Keith Howlett and I was born there in 1946, my father came from Filby and my mother from Norwich. My father was a master grocer and then he became the post master. My first school was Stokesby and then I went to Duncan Hall School in Scratby. We lived there until 1961 when we moved to Norwich.

I moved to Manor Farm, Runham with my brother, sister and mum and dad. In 1972 my dad worked as a cowman for Mr Watts and my mum cleaned house for Mrs Watts, we lived there for 12 years in all. The farm we lived on stopped being a dairy farm and my father took a job at the Smiths Crisp factory in Yarmouth until his death in 1980. A year later we moved to Caister-on-Sea, but growing up in Runham has left a lot of good memories.

Acle, interior of the Church c1955
Ref: A204105
I am looking for a church called Heringby or St Ethelbert Church where my ancestor Hugh Atte Fenne was buried in the chancel next to his mother. He bequeathed money to rebuild the tower, roof and porch around 1474 when he died. He also founded a college and an almshouse for the poor. Could this be the same church? I have been searching for it. My e-mail is sjlatshaw@comcast.net ~Susan
