Q: I understand roundabout beds require a site visit to be arranged with a representative present. Could you let me know how best to arrange this, and provide some availability over the coming weeks? A: Please get in touch with (Rachel Price) directly on 01787 275772, and I will arrange for one of our operatives to take us to the roundabout sites. You will be required to wear appropriate hi-vis clothing while inspecting site near the Highway. Existing plant stock. Q: Will the successful contractor be inheriting any existing planting at contract commencement (16 October 2026), or should pricing assume all beds and planters are being planted from scratch? A: Pricing should include all supply and maintenance costs for planter schemes. All beds are now planted with drought tolerant perennials, but some provision should be made under maintenance costings for the replacement of dead or removed plants where required. The council advises visiting all sites to ensure accurate costings. Green waste composting. Q: Could you provide some further detail on the capacity and location of the Aerobin Hot Composters and other on-site composting facilities, so we can assess how much green waste can realistically be processed on-site versus requiring off-site disposal? A: We have x4 400L Aerobin hot composters based at our Cemetery on Newton Road – they are only accessible with prior Council permission. These can, at any time, be at capacity from our in-house Cemetery Grounds maintenance activities so can never guarantee capacity. Please cost assuming that all waste will be processed by you off site. Belle Vue roundabout (King Street). Q: The tender notes a new low-lying gravel/sedum garden scheme is required here. Is there a budget guide or any design parameters you can share for this new scheme, or is this open to the contractor's proposal? A: This should be costed within your proposal, the Council would expect initial design, fabrication and installation / planting costs in year 1 and then any ongoing maintenance costs in year 2 and 3. This site is not appropriate for regular watering or tending so self-sufficient, hardy, drought tolerant schemes will only be acceptable.

A historic market town nestled along the River Stour About Sudbury, Suffolk An Ancient Market Town The ancient town of Sudbury, which stands on the bank of the River Stour on the southern border of the county of Suffolk, has existed since Saxon times. The town was first mentioned in chronicles in 798 a.d. and was recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle (late 9th Century) as Suthberie (or South Borough). The town's market was established in 1009 and continues to thrive today . Sudbury is mentioned as a market town in the Domesday Book (1086), with a recorded population of 129.5 households - putting it in the largest 20% of settlements recorded at the time. Prior to the Norman Conquest the town had a mint and enjoyed the status of a borough. Sudbury boasts an incredible 242 listed buildings , one of the highest concentrations of listed properties in the country, giving the town a unique character and making it an excellent heritage destination. An excellent way to navigate the town's fascinating history on foot is via The Talbot Trail, a series of 14 bronze scultures around town that illustrate various defining moments in Sudbury's history. The talbot was a medieval breed of hunting dog and the town coat of arms depicts the dog owned by the notorious Simon of Sudbury . Sudbury is surrounded by ancient commonlands which are free for visitors to enjoy via accessible routes. Much of the land has never been ploughed or farmed making them wildlife havens. We work in partnership with the Sudbury Commonlands Charity to ensure the protection and promotion of these vital areas of sanctuary for wildlife and humans alike. The town was the birthplace of the artist Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788) whose childhood home is now open to the public as a gallery and museum. The beautiful Grade I listed building now hosts exhibitions, workshops, a café and more. The first recorded Mayor of Sudbury was Robert Darry in 1331. Edward the Third settle Flemish weavers in the town during the 14th Century. This resulted in the establishment of a weaving and clothmaking industry which thrives to the present day. Sudbury is proud to belong to the Wool Towns Association . There are today four working silk mills in the town and in 2019 the Sudbury Silk Festival was established. In 2019, in recognition of Sudbury's active and charitable community we were awarded 'Town of the Year' in the Suffolk Community Awards and was awarded the 'Town of The Year' accolade again in 2023 for our significant strides for sustainability, community support during Covid and Cost of Living crisis and partnership working across the business community and with other councils.
