The Pink Thatched Cottages by St. Mary's Church in the splendid village of Cavendish, Suffolk, England.

Commentary.

 

Cavendish is a very dignified and impressive village

in the Stour Valley of Suffolk.

Although the name may originate in Saxon times,

coincidentally, Sir John Cavendish, an ancestor of

the Dukes of Devonshire, lived in the village in the 16th. Century.

St. Mary’s Church is adjacent to the famous Pink Thatched Cottages

and the spacious Village Green.

Two fetes take place on the Green every year

as well as a Fireworks Display in November.

The residences give an impression of relative wealth

and high maintenance.

The village has three fine pubs,

The Five Bells, The George and The Bull.
