Centenary celebrations
August 11th 2013 is the centenary of the arrival of the stone situated at the side of the Post Office. This stone was sent from Hingham, Massachusetts in return for the mounting block, which had stood in the same spot, and had been sent to Hingham, Massachusetts earlier from Hingham, Norfolk.
Following the success of the celebrations to mark the Royal Wedding and the Jubilee, a similar event is to be held to celebrate this anniversary during the weekend of 10th - 11th August 2013.
So far it is planned to have a concert in the Church, a breakfast on the Fairland, a Church Service, and numerous events in the Market Place, including a Hog Roast, dancing etc. It is also hoped to show the film 'Lincoln' .
