Following the Service, wreaths will be laid on both the British and American Memorials at The Croft.

Sudbury Roll of Honour at Sudbury Heritage Centre WW1 ROLL OF HONOUR During the First World War 236 men from Sudbury families joined the war effort and lost their lives, not always in action. Some died of disease, others in accidents. Just a few of their stories are told at the Sudbury Heritage Centre. WW2 ROLL OF HONOUR In the war years of 1939-1945 Sudbury men fought on land, in the air and at sea, in all the main theatres of war including the jungles of the Far East and the deserts of North Africa. The stories of some of the 60 who died in this conflict is told in a dedicated permanent display at The Heritage Centre. AMERICANS IN SUDBURY A deserted airfield lies just to the east of Sudbury. For some eighteen months in 1944-45 this was ‘home’ to some 3,000 young American GIs of the 486th Bomber Group. B17 and B24 heavy bombers took off on missions into Occupied Europe. The story of the 486th Group is told at the Heritage Centre - dedicated to the memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. COMMONWEALTH WAR GRAVES We produce a booklet of Commonwealth War Graves in Sudbury Cemetary. This is available to pick up for free in the Heritage Centre, or can be downloaded here.

Mill Acre & The Croft The Croft and Mill Acre form one of Sudbury's most valued green spaces, and is an important natural landscape. Located alongside the River Stour and within easy reach of the town centre, the area provides a network of open grassland, mature trees, riverside habitats and walking routes that support a diverse range of wildlife. The area's varied habitats provide opportunities for birds, pollinators, small mammals and aquatic species, making biodiversity a key feature of this much-loved landscape. As both a recreational space and ecological asset, The Croft and Mill Acre play an important role in supporting wildlife while enhancing the wellbeing of residents and visitors alike. The Council is aware that many residents are keen to see progress on the former boating pond site at Mill Acre and understand the frustration that the area has remained undeveloped for a number of years. The redevelopment of the boating pond is a significant and complex project. Due to the site's location and environmental considerations as a flood plain, any proposed works will require detailed assessment and permissions from external bodies, including the Environment Agency. These requirements are essential to ensure that any future development is safe, sustainable and environmentally responsible. At the same time, the Council is managing other major projects across the town. These include the provision of a new cemetery, which has been identified as a priority due to the limited remaining capacity within the current cemetery. As with all large-scale projects, available resources and staffing mean that projects must be carefully planned and delivered in a realistic sequence. The Council remains committed to finding a long-term solution for the former boating pond site and has identified the project as one of its highest priorities. Work is continuing to establish the most appropriate options for the area and to secure the necessary approvals required before any redevelopment can proceed. As plans develop, further updates will be provided on this website. The Council appreciates the patience and understanding of residents while this important work is progressed Feeding the wildfowl at the croft and meadows Feeding the ducks, swans and other wildfowl at The Croft and surrounding meadows is an enjoyable way to spend some time, but please read through the information opposite before you set out. By feeding our feathered Sudbury residents the correct food stuffs, this not only provides more nutritional value for them, but also helps to keep their habitats and surrounding environment flourishing too. Wildfowl pellets can be bought from Wayne's Pet Supplie s on Thursday, Friday & Saturday outside of the Town Hall, and from the Tourist Information Centre on Gaol Lane.
