Places to see in ( Mildenhall - UK )
Mildenhall is a small market town and civil parish in Suffolk, England. It is part of the non-metropolitan district of Forest Heath and has a population of 9,906 people, increasing to 10,315 at the 2011 Census. The town is near the A11 and is located 60 km (37 mi) north-west of county town, Ipswich.
Mildenhall centres on a market place with a 16th-century hexagonal market cross and town pump. The town's market is held here on every Friday and originated as a weekly chartered market in, it is believed, the 15th century. In 1934, Mildenhall was the start point of the MacRobertson Air Race to Melbourne, Australia. Mildenhall has its own radio station, ZACK FM (Forest Heath Public Radio), broadcasting on 105.3 FM; the transmitter is located at the top of St Mary's Church and radiates 100 W. The station format is classic and current hits plus specialist shows, and broadcasts 24 hours a day with a mix of music, news and information Mildenhall is mentioned in passing in the Pink Floyd song 'Let There Be More Light' on the 1968 album A Saucerful of Secrets as a speculated location for first contact between humanity and extraterrestrial life.
The town has a bus station which was completed in 2005. Regular bus services run to the neighbouring towns of Brandon, Bury St. Edmunds, Newmarket and Thetford. National Express operate daily coach services to Norwich, London (Victoria Coach Station), Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted Airports. Mildenhall railway station was the terminus of the Cambridge to Mildenhall railway until its closure in 1962.
Mildenhall has a Non-League football club [Mildenhall Town F.C.] who play at Recreation Way. It also has one of the region's leading cricket clubs, Mildenhall Cricket Club, playing at Wamil Way. In 2016 the 1XI won the Two Counties Championship and was promoted to the East Anglian Premier Cricket League. Notable players have included England international Tymal Mills, England Lions' Tom Westley and Essex Women's Lilly Reynolds. There is a leisure centre on Bury Road which is about 5–10 minutes away from the town square.
Mildenhall is perhaps most famous for the discovery in 1942 of the Mildenhall Treasure. Now at the British Museum, the treasure is a hoard of Roman silver objects buried in the 4th century. In 1946 the discovery was made public and the treasure acquired by the British Museum; Roald Dahl wrote an article about the find which was published firstly in the Saturday Evening Post, and later as The Mildenhall Treasure (a short story) in his short story collection The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Six More.

U.S. Military on the A14 in England - Aaaaarrvest!!!
Unusual U.S. Military vehicles spotted on the A14 just outside Cambridge in England while I laugh like a maniac and say 'Harvest'. I don't know how it started but it could have been triggered by seeing a sign pointing to Haverhill or 'avril as some call it. A UK regional accent which sometimes uses this kind of pronunciation is Somerset as used by the Wurzels in their song 'Combine Harvester (Brand New Key)'. Other voice provided by MikeSnos (
The lack of a back window is not recommended but not necessarily a problem as some vans don't have back windows. But no number plates, not even military number plates is odd (unless someone can has more info on this).

The Lavenham Walk - beautiful autumnal walk along disused railway in rural Suffolk
This is one of my favourite countryside walks which in this case I did on a beautiful autumn day. The walk itself sticks mainly to the disused railway line which used to be a branch line running between Bury St. Edmunds and the market town of Sudbury.
The rail service was originally part of the 'Great Eastern Railway' and opened on the 9th August 1865 with the final train running on the 10th April 1961.
There are a couple of interesting and historic landmarks on the journey including the series of military 'Pill boxes' dotted around which once served to defend the local Lavenham Airfield during the war. Lavenham Airfield was home to 487th Bomb Group of the American 8th Airforce. It was from this airfield that heavy strategic bombing missions departed with targets in Northern France in preparation for the Normandy invasion. They targeted airfields, coastal defences, road junctions, bridges and trains during the invasion itself as well as missions against German industries, refineries and communications. East Anglia was popular for airfields as it is flat and close to the continent.
The walk itself takes in open fields, small muddy pathways, disused railway cuttings and beautiful forest - I hope you enjoy the walk with me and will click on the 'like' button below.

[Wikipedia] East Anglian Brigade
The East Anglian Brigade was an administrative formation of the British Army from 1948 to 1968. The Brigade administered the regular infantry regiments of East Anglia, England.
After the Second World War the British Army had fourteen infantry depots, each bearing a letter. The depots were territorially organised, and Infantry Depot G at Colchester was the headquarters for the county regiments of Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Huntingdonshire, Norfolk, Northamptonshire and Suffolk.
In 1948, the depots adopted names and this depot became the East Anglian Brigade, with all regiments being reduced to a single battalion at the same time. The East Anglian Brigade was formed on 14 July 1948 at Gibraltar Barracks, Bury St Edmunds as an administrative apparatus for the infantry regiments from East Anglia:
The Royal Norfolk Regiment (until 1959)
The Suffolk Regiment (until 1959)
The Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Regiment (until 1958)
The Essex Regiment (until 1958)
The Northamptonshire Regiment (until 1960)
Under the Defence Review announced in July 1957, the infantry of the line was reorganised: In 1958, the Royal Lincolnshire Regiment was transferred from the Forester Brigade, and by 1960 the six individual regiments had amalgamated to form three East Anglian Regiments:
Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Regiment and Essex Regiment - 3rd East Anglian Regiment (16th/44th Foot) on 2 June 1958
Royal Norfolk Regiment and Suffolk Regiment - 1st East Anglian Regiment (Royal Norfolk and Suffolk) on 29 August 1959
Royal Lincolnshire Regiment and Northamptonshire Regiment - 2nd East Anglian Regiment (Duchess of Gloucester's Own Royal Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire) on 1 June 1960
At the same time East Anglian Brigade cap badges and buttons replaced those of the individual regiments. The cap badge was a silver eight-pointed star bearing the castle and key of Gibraltar, with a scroll inscribed East Anglia. The key and castle was a badge awarded to predecessors of all three regiments for their part in the Great Siege of Gibraltar from 1779 - 1783. The brigade buttons were identical to those of the Royal Norfolk Regiment, bearing the figure of Brittania.
The three regiments could be distinguished by their collar badges and coloured lanyards:
The 1st East Anglian Regiment wore collar badges consisting of Brittania in front of the Castle of Gibraltar and a yellow lanyard
The 2nd East Anglian Regiment wore collar badges consisting of a sphinx on a tablet inscribed Egypt over a scroll with the battle honour Talavera and a black lanyard
The 3rd East Anglian Regiment wore collar badges depicting a Napoleonic eagle enclosed within the Garter and a pompadour purple (claret purple) lanyard
In 1963, the Royal Leicestershire Regiment was transferred from the Forester Brigade. The regiment wore collar badges comprising a royal tiger within an unbroken wreath of laurel and a pearl grey, black and scarlet lanyard.
In 1964, all four were amalgamated to form a new, large regiment called the Royal Anglian Regiment. The new regiment's cap badge was similar to that of the East Anglian Brigade except that the scroll was now inscribed Royal Anglian and the cap badge is now smaller..
On 1 July 1968 the East Anglian Brigade was united with the Fusilier Brigade and the Home Counties Brigades, to form the Queen's Division.
