I first mentioned on Suffolk rootsweb mailing list that someone was putting together a book about Marlesford nearly 2 years ago, I think, soon after my visit 'treading in my ancestors' footsteps', with the help of my cousins Kevin Scott and Ken Finch.
 
The booklet is now available, I understand, from Margaret Fisher, and she tells me "on receipt of a cheque for £6 (for UK only)" and her address is:
2 East View Cottages
Marlesford
Woodbridge IP13 0AT.

Hi forest.

Amazon didn't turn up much, but you can search the Suffolk Libraries holdings online.  A search for "Stoke by Clare" turns up quite a few titles.

Does anyone know of any books about Whatfield?

A new book will soon be available, it tells us about the various trades and professions that would have been going on in a small market town anywhere in Suffolk. 
From the harness maker to the baker, from the malster to the printer etc etc.

Many photographs and documents illustrate the carefully researched information.

You can find out more at

Glad I could help Liz   

As you will have noticed, it's a small publisher with a special interest in Norfolk and Suffolk.

Many of the books have interactive pages - the one about the Gressenhall Workhouse has pages of information as will the new book on Framlingham (it will include the Fram 1901 Census).

All best wishes, SM ...
