07 Apr Halesworth Day – Saturday 13th May 2023
We have organised and will be hosting a brand new event, Halesworth Day, on Saturday 13th May 2023 at St Mary’s Church. This is the first of what we hope will become an annual event to celebrate all things Halesworth. That is, the Town, its people its local organisations and businesses and additionally, there is also the little matter of our first five years of existence to commemorate. The idea of forming a Society to celebrate the Town, its lost railway and the connection to Southwold and along the way, the villages of Wenhaston, Blythburgh and Walberswick, was first mooted and agreed at the White Hart by our founders. A year later, our first AGM was held at the Angel. When forming the Society, the founders decided that it would always try to use Halesworth businesses, where at all possible, in an endeavour to provide economic benefit to the Town. We are inviting Halesworth businesses and organisations to become involved with the event, so, if you want to have a stall, manned or unmanned please contact us. Stalls are free of charge. This is a public event and entrance is free. Please come and join us. So far, the following have confirmed their attendance: Halesworth Millennium Green Trust East Suffolk Transport Association U3A Halesworth

We have an Open Day at the site of Blythburgh Station on Sunday 3rd April between 10am and 4pm. Our volunteers will show you around and try and answer any questions you may have about the foundations of the station, the Good Shed and the Southwold Railway in general. We hope to have a 7 1/4 inch working steam loco running but please note that if we do, it will not be carrying any passengers. Entrance is free and we will be providing free Coffees and Teas. The site is circled in red on the photograph below. Access to the site is just off the A12 and is next to the Village Hall and almost opposite the White Hart PH. Look for the Blythburgh Station signs.
