Pakefield
notes:The Village takes it's name from Pacca's or
Pagga's field after a local land owner of the time, the village
features a distinctive church, All Saints and St. Margaret. Long
ago the church was split because it used to serve two separate
parishes, but now after an eventful history, which includes being
bombed in the 2nd World War, the churches share a tower and are
one. In 1801 the population of pakefield was 282. The Church features
a thatched roof.

| Historical
perspective:The Riot Act (1 Geo. 1, c. 5) of 1714 was an act
introduced by the Parliament of Great Britain authorising local
authorities to declare any group of more than twelve people
to be unlawfully assembled, and thus have to disperse or face
punitive action. The Act, whose long title was "An act
for preventing tumults and riotous assemblies, and for the more
speedy and effectual punishing the rioters", came into
force on August 1, 1715, and remained on the statute books until
1973. |
