title A Late June Miscellany, Suffolk - 28th June 2025 intro The BSCC is out again, this time to the Trowel and Hammer at Cotton followed by the Four Horseshoes at Thornham Magna. Then, Harry needs a lift to Bedfield so he can do his performance for Grade 1 saxophone. The hanging-around time means another trip to St. Nicholas at Bedfield for a closer look at some of the details, including the late-Mediaeval Rood Screen, which has mostly survived the reformation and/or Civil War iconoclasts. Finally, we're in Diss where there's some sort of military-themed event going on, including the Army cadets doing some sort of recruiting drive. imgp0085 A wind turbine gets some emergency maintenance imgp0086 There's a collection of cool mopeds in Cotton imgp0087 Phil and Fred at the Trowel and Hammer imgp0090 Fred has a pint of diet cola imgp0091 The Boy Phil comes back from the bar with a round imgp0092 Beers in the garden imgp0094 The moped boys head off imgp0107 The sun sets behind Finningham water tower imgp0110 We're on the top road to Wickham Skeith imgp0111 The Boy Phil looks over another too-ripe field imgp0112 We stop off at the Four Horseshoes for more beer imgp0117 Farm buildings at Bedfield imgp0118 A real mixture of styles, including a Norman door imgp0001 A votive candle holder in a window imgp0005 Part of the late-Mediaeval Rood screen imgp0007 Bedfield's late-Mediaeval Rood screen imgp0008 A sampler showing significant Bedfield buildings imgp0011 A former Rood Loft access and staircase imgp0013 Light streams through a plain glass window imgp0015 17th-century benches in the church imgp0016 A book dedication from 1700 imgp0020 A close-up of a 17th-century poppyhead imgp0021 The nave and chancel of St. Nicholas imgp0022 The church has a recent-ish compost toilet imgp0024 A view from the back of St. Nicholas imgp0025 A view of fields imgp0026 Bedfield Hall, from up the path imgp0029 There's a stack of concrete A's imgp0033 We pass a field full of cow parsley or something imgp0035 A field of wheat looks almost ready imgp0038 Isobel looks around outside No. 8 Marketplace imgp0040 Park Radio is setting up a roadshow imgp0043 An Army LandRover and the cadets do recruiting imgp0045 Mere Street and its bunting in the sun
