Withersdale is nearly 3 miles E of Harleston and a mile and a half from the river Waveney, which marks the border with Norfolk. The church stands alongside the B1123 and the moated hall site, with a medieval farmhouse, is 500 yards (457 metres) to the S. The rest of the village has migrated W along the road towards Harleston, forming the settlement of Withersdale Street.
The church is a two-cell building, largely of flint. The nave is tall with a wooden belfry on the W gable. A blocked N doorway, converted into a window, indicates a 12thc. date, but the S doorway, pointed and chamfered, and small pointed lancets in the lateral walls suggest a major 13thc. remodelling. Lateral two-light windows were added at the E end of the nave in the 15thc. Inside there is a N rood stair. There is no chancel arch and the chancel, slightly lower than the nave, has a 13thc. S doorway and plain pointed lancets in the side walls at the W end. Further E the lateral windows have Y-tracery, suggesting that it was lengthened c.1300. The E wall is 18thc., of brick part-rendered with a window with wooden glazing bars. An oblong W window, bargeboards at E and W and on the S porch, and a mortar render on the S side combine to give the church a domestic look. The highlight for the student of Romanesque sculpture is a damaged but elaborately carved font.
History
In 1316 the manor was vested in Oliva de Ingham, who died seised of it in 1343. In 1347 a fine was levied on it and the advowson by Alexander, parson of Horham church and others against Alexander de Walsham and Margaret his wife. Shortly after this the manor was acquired by Sir William Jermy, who died in 1385, from which time it passed in the same course as the manor of Metfield, remaining in the Jermy family until the extinction of the male line in 1652.

I have done some more work on this model. I think I have it finished. I completely redesigned the entire thing, adding more detail. I have made it into the horizontal plank version so that I can have detail, and be able to fit a battery in it. I hope to have a test model soon, and possibly build it later on. Next I will try to put it on Rebrickable.

There have been three main periods in the construction of this historic castle. The oldest part of the castle dates to 1270 and consisted of the gatehouse and a walled bailey. In the early 1500s the Bullen family bought the castle and added a Tudor dwelling within the walls and so it became the childhood home of its most famous inhabitant, Anne Boleyn. The family changed the spelling of their name (Bullen) to the old French spelling (Boleyn)
It later passed into the ownership of Henry’s fourth wife, Anne of Cleves.
From 1557 onwards the Castle was owned by a number of families including the Waldegraves, the Humfreys and the Meade Waldos.
Finally, in 1903, William Waldorf Astor invested time, money and imagination in restoring the Castle, building the ’Tudor Village’ and creating the gardens and lake.
Since 1983, the castle has been owned by Broadland Properties Limited and open to the public. The castle has a homely atmosphere and houses historic 16th century Tudor portraits, furniture and tapestries. Other artefacts include two magnificent Books of Hours (prayer books), both signed and inscribed by Anne Boleyn. Costumed figures of Henry VIII and his six wives in the Long Gallery adds to the atmosphere and is popular with the children. The Council Chamber in the thirteenth century gatehouse contains collections of historic swords, armour, instruments of execution, torture and discipline.
On a day off I typically move stuff around. Add a book, remove a plant, add a painting, remove a miniature car, etc etc. Growing up, we didn't have much. Most things were thrifted (not in the good way), found and/or broken. I'm often in disbelief that I actually have my own place with my own things that I payed for my own money. I still don't have much, but what I do have, I wanted, saved up for, and thrifted (in the very awesome way). I'm grateful.
Adding a reverse camera to the factory touchscreen in a VE Series 2 is a breeze for the technicians at SSV
I have tiles!
They don't quite look like how I imagined, but they're still pretty cool. I was hoping for more definition between each of the 'bricks'. Might become more obvious as the grout darkens, or something? Not sure.
Wall cabinets + skirting will go on tomorrow, hopefully.
