It was a great pleasure for me last week (11/05/1992) to listen to your Radio programme about the village of Cawston, I just happened to be here on holiday.
I have been living in Germany for the last 20 years but was born in Cawston in 1949 where I lived until 1968. It was delightful to listen to people's voices who I knew when I was a child....

John Kett
Description
An account of the resource
Champion of Norfolk Dialect.
Mr John Kett retired in March 1978 after 26 years as Headmaster of Cawston School.
In a few words it is impossible to do justice to what Mr. Kett has meant and means, to the school, the village and the wider community in which he has lived and worked.
In the school, it is no exaggeration to say that he has been greatly loved and respected. Recent letters of appreciation include such words as "Dear Mr Kett", "unbounding help and encouragement", "the best Headmaster we have ever known", a wonderful Headmaster", "a very good friend to myself and family He is a schoolmaster of great kindliness, understanding and wisdom, who has shared his interests and, indeed, his life with his pupils.
How he has also found time for other things is amazing in itself. A Lay Reader for many years, his work in the parish and in the Cawston Group cannot be overestimated.
For many years too, his work for the St John Ambulance Brigade was unstinted and greatly appreciated.
He is rightly known to many, children and adults alike, as a great lover of the countryside, and all aspects of natural history, a love he has passed on to so many over the years.
And what an entertainer too! How many of us have enjoyed his feel for words, whether in his published books of dialect verse, or in his songs! Very much a man of Norfolk,
He has been an inspiration to all of us. There was in him an inner strength which is difficult to define but which, most certainly, owes much to his own family life and, of course, to Mary his wife. It is sometimes easy to forget that she has been the wife of the Headmaster for 26 years as well,
I am privileged to write for many.
John Asquith.

<p>Bomber Plane Crash WW11 at Bluestone Plantation.</p>
Description
An account of the resource
Handley Page Hampden Bomber Plane 1941
WW11 Bomber Plane crash.
On February 10th 1941 a Handley Page Hampden bomber plane crashed into Bluestone plantation killing all the aircrew: Flight Lieutenant John Frutiger, Sergeant John Hill, Flight Sergeant Robert Gapp, and Sergeant Robert Chanin, it was his 21st birthday.
At a ceremony in Cawston on Sunday 2 September, a plaque was unveiled in memory of the four young airmen in their early twenties of 61 Squadron, set off from RAF Hemswell on a bombing mission to Wilhelmshaven in Germany. On their return, they crashed near Cawston while attempting an emergency landing.
The very moving unveiling of the memorial and laying of wreaths followed a service in St Agnes’ Church, Cawston. The service and ceremony were attended by a large contingent of Cawston residents, along with representatives of the Royal British Legion and relatives of the airmen. A bugler played the Last Post and there was a fly-past of 2 aircrafts one of which was a Tiger Moth.
The Historical Society were particularly delighted to welcome several of the airmen’s family members, from Norfolk, Devon, Hertfordshire and Humberside.”
Refreshment were provided after at the Village Hall.
The decision to honour the airman with a plaque originated when Bill Sampson who was about 10/11 years of age and son of the policeman in the village at that time told us about this in a history piece of Cawston and when they were putting together a DVD of the history of Cawston, Mr Brain Turner recalled this incident (See film above) and seemed appropriate time to do something.
The memorial already has a plaque on it in memory of the crew of the Lucky Strike , which was flying back from a raid on submarine pens at Kiel in January 1944 when it crashed at Church Farm, Cawston with the loss of two lives.
Handley Page Hampden was a twin-engine medium bomber of the Royal Air Force (RAF) and was used in the early stages of the war.
