This group will try to uncover what Beccles was like and how it has developed through the centuries.

This we shall do by finding out

• who lived in Beccles
• what they did
• what they owned
• whether they were affected by national events e.g., the black death, religious upheavals (e.g. the Lollards), famine and the peasants revolt

We shall see what we can discover from both published articles and original documents. Please bring along anything you want to discuss.
