The village information boards are situated near the Village Hall
and Hall Mead.
A few years ago a survey conducted by Suffolk Acre concluded that
there was a need for some affordable houses for local people or
people with local connections who wanted to move back into
Lawshall. The outcome of this survey was that
a new estate was created, called Anncell's Close, and this includes
some affordable houses. The development was finished by June
2008 and the residents moved in.
In May 2008 Lawshall entered the Village of the Year Awards for the
first time. Nine other villages also entered, some larger than
Lawshall. Judging took place in June and Lawshall came 4th with 349
points. Cockfield were the winners with 364 points. In August
we received a letter informing us that the overall impression of
the village was generally a very good one and the village was
highly commended. The judging panel have agreed that a Highly
Commended certificate should be awarded to Lawshall and Brantham
(they came 5th with 342 points.) The certificate will be on view in
the Village Hall in due course.
