The stunning photographs in
the 2012 calendar provide a wonderful record of the parish as it is
today. They represent the diverse activities in our active community
and reflect the beauty of the village and its surrounding landscape.
In addition, an older image relating to each modern scene is
included with historical notes by Wendy Sparrow, the Parish
Recorder. Being Jubilee year, Wendy has also included a history of
‘Royal Celebrations in Nayland’.

The Calendars and the Photographs
|
| |
 |
A village
calendar for Nayland with Wissington has been produced by the
Community Council since 2010. Following a suggestion by Hazel
Gardiner in 2008 a sub-committee was formed to bring the idea to
fruition. Members of the committee for the first calendar were:
Hazel Gardiner, Lorraine Brooks, Wendy Sparrow, Jenny Smith and
Chris Hunt. More recently, Pat Bray and Trevor Smy joined the
committee in place of Jenny Smith and Chris Hunt.
A photographic competition, open to anyone living or working in the
parish, is held each May to generate the photographs for the twelve
months and a front cover. For each month the modern photograph is
accompanied by an older image and historical information.
The stunning photographs which have been entered in the competitions
have made judging very difficult for the professional photographer
requested to fulfil this task. The images have been excellent and
such a superb reflection of our parish, its character and landscape.
All the entries are on display on the May Bank Holiday following judging,
but it is felt that this is insufficient to do them justice so they have
been included in a photo album. A copy of the 2012 album is available
online - click on the image to view.
