Parish Plan
<p>After a public meeting attended by around twenty five people, it was agreed to proceed with a group that would assist with the organization of the work towards producing a village plan.</p>
<p>The first meeting was held on Tuesday 8th April 2007, attended by ten people. The group discussed different ways to approach people in Cawston to ascertain their views on what was required in Cawston. The meeting considered Parish Plans produced by other councils and the range and scope of the possible questions.</p>
<p>Ideas were also suggested for contacting people who might not normally participate in such an exercise.</p>
<p>It was agreed to ask the steering group to consider the range of questions for a questionnaire for discussion at the next meeting which was held on Tuesday April 29th at the Scout Hut.</p>
<p>The questions was developed by a group of Cawston residents and the questionnaires delivered by volunteers by hand and collected one week later.</p>
<p>The parish Plan was then produced and completed in 2010 by Andrew Cameron-Heffer. James Livingstone. Terry Simons. John Carrick. Rob Young and then distributed.</p>
<p>The Parish Plan was made possible with the assistance of Cawston Parish Council. Broadland District Council and Norfolk RCC.</p>

Booton Clay Pits.

Formed here when men once dug clay at a penny a yard (cubic), earning a meagre 35 to 40 pence a week at a time when the local weaving industry was in decay. The Cawston Fishing Club use and look after Booton Clay Pits which is owned by the Parish of Cawston, the Cawston Heath Trust oversees the management.
CLAY LUMP: Clay lump building continued far into the 19th century. The clay was mixed with straw and made into blocks, which were well dried before they were used, the mortar usually consisting of wet clay and cow-dung. The clay diggers were paid one penny for every cubic yard of clay, and a week's work would only realise about 50 pence. Men who had been put out of work by the decay of the weaving industry in East Anglia were often glad to seek this employment.
