Pettistree Heritage 2000 Trust
The Local History Recorder, appointed in 1993, staged the first Heritage Exhibition in 1995. As more material about the village was collected it became obvious that a larger exhibition five years later, to celebrate the Millennium, would be of interest. In order to stage this money was required and it was decided to apply to the Lottery Fund.
To this end it was necessary to have a committee and so the Pettistree
Heritage Trust 2000 was born. It consists of seven members, meets at least
four times a year and organises small as well as large exhibitions, raising
funds as necessary for running costs. The archive is now owned by the Parish
Council who, if necessary, gives support with a small annual grant.
There are enquiries and contributions from all over the world through the help
of modern technology.
In 2006 an informative talk entitled Early English Gardens and the Importance of Mounts and Canals with special reference to Pettistree was given by Edward Martin, Archaeological Officer in Landscape History with Suffolk County Council.
In 2007 a most interesting and entertaining evening was given by Charlie Haylock with particular reference to the development of the Suffolk dialect interspersed with examples of Suffolk humour.
