I was born in Stokesby in 1945 and lived there until 1965 when I married and went to live in nearby Acle, I remember Head Teacher Sybil Freeman and Miss Brown, also my first day at school, I hated leaving my mum. I was married in the church in 1965. I remember Mr Bransby the Rector and also Revd Foreman. The Ferry Inn was owned by Hector Newby.

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.
