Recently Released Darsham Books:

The PCC has published a third book, written by the Local History Recorder, Ron Reeve and called "When Constabulary Duty's to Be Done", the book tells how  in 1914, the small county of East Suffolk suddenly became a militarised zone, was bombed from the air, bombarded from the sea and how this affected the people and how the East Suffolk Police dealt with situations previously unimagined.

The second Darsham local history book The Watch that Ends the Night has been favourably reviewed by the Suffolk Local History Council:

"We are taken from Domesday to the Millennium with tales of the fortunes of the people of Darsham, their struggles with the land and the weather, the coming of the railway, education and life in a rural community. Liberally illustrated with photographs and information gleaned from well-researched sources, including Subsidy Returns of 1524, to records of Blything Workhouse, to the National Farm Survey of 1941. This book will be appreciated by local and family historians with an interest in the village of Darsham"
