Some readers will remember, with much pleasure, the years when Wingfield Arts, led by Ian Chance, provided performances and exhibitions both in Wingfield (College, Church and Barn) and more widely. This local centre of cultural enjoyment has been much missed.
Happily, Wingfield Barns is, phoenixlike, to open this very week, with a lively and varied programme for 2009.This is under the auspices of the Mid-Suffolk County Council, our Councillor, Diana Kearsley, playing a key part. There is something planned for almost everyone!

The iconic red telephone box (or kiosk as they are more formally known) that sits beside the Street Forge Workshops in Thornham Magna is to be decommissioned by BT. The relentless invasion of mobile telephony means that traditional telephone boxes are redundant as functional entities - but are they something more than that?

Posted on behalf of John Vandenberghe - thank you John
The Eye Bach Choir was founded in 1974 by Dr Merlin Channon and his wife, Anne. Its first performance was given in February of that year in Eye Church – Bach’s Motet, Jesu. Priceless Treasure - a piece which the original members had worked on at their first gathering in Merlin Channon’s house.
In the early years the Choir’s repertoire tended to be centred on baroque and classical music though, with the passage of time, works by Brahms, Verdi , Britten and Vaughan Williams began to feature.
